And I think I've got it!!! In fact, I'm quite certain of it!!!
I am moving forward on a piece, a new floral that will follow in the manner of "Wild Sun" which is an available original - created with a layer of acrylic base colors where the actual subject matter is in Oils....
So I'm thinking, as I ramble this morning, that this might be a really good idea for most of my art going forward. I like the way I can manipulate the acrylics with just a little bit of water and their fast drying time allows me to make quick corrections and move the piece forward at a faster pace than usual. But the buttery texture of the oils cannot be underestimated. I've found that the oils give the flowers a really soft feel as if they just jump off the canvas at you.
Yes, this is a good idea indeed - here's hoping that in the next few weeks, I will have a final image posted. In the meantime, please enjoy "Wild Sun"
