This is an outlier.... acrylic!


I was still a bit too classical with that last effort, I don't seem to get the brush marks I'm wanting, so I thought I'd resort to acrylics--they dry so fast you don't get anything but brush marks!!  So I did a painting of that last painting ("Repose"), which is a great exercise anyway. I won't post that (it was a painting "only a mother could love"!)--but did one more acrylic painting as a study from a photo taken in Florence two years ago.  Here 'tis.  While I've hated pretty much every painting I've ever done in acrylic, I am surprisingly happy with this one--but still intend to do a "real" painting in oils!
