morning glory phase 1



I just started this painting two days ago and this is what I have done so far. It's acrylic on 6 inches X 6 inches gallery canvas. I used gloss gel medium on this to make the painting go on the canvas more smoothly. I hate that patchy look I was getting when I was painting the reds in candy stripes because it was drying so fast. With the gloss gel it made the consistency of the paint more fluid and a better glaze also it slowed down the drying time a bit. Like liquin with oil paints.










This is the side view of the piece. I like the feeling that the painting never truly ends. That it continues into it's environment.
