Tiki Shark Artist, your painting with color creeping in, wow! The wait has been kiling me but that underpainting you did is top shelf, looks like you've been doing them for years. I really think painting with the subtleties you do in acrylic has got to be harder than painting in oil, that could be my total suckiness with acrylics though. I've definitely been inspired by what you do to try some acrylic work again, trying to do one of those skull paintings right now with the water based stuff. I've been trying hard to keep my fingers out of my paintings lately for fear of cadmiums and nasty heavy metals. Is that a concern for acrylics? I love to finger blend. Looking forward to this piece progressing, it kind of takes the series in a new direction with the weird puppy and big cast of characters. I'd love to see the robby robot drink waiter tiki painting come to technicolor life sometime to. Nice sky!
