When we visited Louisville, we toured the historic home of George Rogers Clark's sister. There was this antique tea set from the period, and I thought it would make a good painting. This is done on yupo, finished size 12.5" by 17.5". The method is one Sandy M teaches: make a medium value pour using fluid acrylic, and use 90% alcohol to wipe away paint for the whites and very lights. Then paint the dark values in with watercolor. I plan to put it in the SIAG spring art show on April 11th. My big problem is finding the right kind of mat. Nothing seems to work well, not even white.
