Description 6 Hour acrylic painting. Despite the roughness of it, people seemed to really like this one. Some of the water ripples are painted on, but the brighter ripple marks is actually a reflection of strips of gloss I put on for a "real" ripple effect. This piece stinks so bad since there's so much varnish on it, but it's still one of my favs.


Done in acrylics

Thanks! I think it's partially because I layered the gloss so it actually has a real ripple effect.

I like the texture.
And in my opinion I think pieces like this look better rougher. I really like all of the new stuff you put out.
All the nature stuff.
You have an eye for it

Thanks :]

I'm still trying to figure out where I'm going as a professional artist and I think I enjoy natural science subjects the most so it's encouraging to hear that you like these pieces.
