Abstract with water. I had so much fun with abstracts that I decided to try a new technique using lots and lots of water. I first used a spray bottle to completely wet the canvas then began applying blobs of paint and turning my canvas to get the paint to run where I wanted it to. This process is very messy and you will drip paint everywhere so make sure you are outside or have a tarp down. Once you have just the movement you like, stop and let the canvas dry. Once the canvas completely dried (over a day) the colors dulled. I really liked the shiny sheen when wet so sprayed the entire canvas with a gloss finish. The movement and colors remind me of water and I like the finished effect. Acrylic on Canvas. 16 x 20. Original: Etsy/Studio Quest. Prints: Fine Art America.
