Just finished these little canvases...they are 4 x 4 and 1 inch deep. They are done with some sculpting medium (like gesso), and then painted with acrylic, with a few colored pencil accents. I plan to take them, and a few more, down to Breaux Bridge to the Louisiana Marketplace Shop. These are the kind of subjects that sell well down there in South Louisiana.
Been working on this pelican painting. First step is to paint the pelican in detail on the dry paper. Then I covered him in the masking fluid. That has to dry completely. When dry, I wet the paper, and added the blue washes in a splashy style. When that is all dry, I will peel off the masking fluid. It is a whole lot like rubber cement. Then I will tweak the pelican if needed....stay tuned!!
