Harvest Sunset Part 1


I've been wanting to experiment with some texture. And since acrylic can go under oil paint, I used some gel medium to create a textured field. This will allow me to be more liberal / free with my brush work and texture in the sky. I hope. We will just have to see how this experiment turns out.

This piece is 8 x 8" on wood, with .75" sides. I'm trying to keep the sides clean, so that I can leave them unpainted and have the wood shine on this project.

Here is a close up of the texture in the field:
