As Promised

Here's an ATC with ye olde portrait orientation. It took all I had not to lay this card on its (long) side.

The ATC is called "Vines" and it features fluid acrylics, Sharpie, and gesso gesso gesso (!).

And thus begins my affair with fluid acrylics. I love these.

  • Beautiful. It looks like a real pressed plant. The orientation suits the composition,too!

  • Lovely. I keep eyeing the liquid acrylics at JoAnn's - they are in the clearance bin because they aren't going to carry them anymore.

  • Merci!

    I love the fluid acrylics so far. You can use them like watercolours for washes, which I like to do very much. The best part about that is once the wash dries, it stays put, even if you wet it again.

    Since I layer quite a bit and plan on using them for journaling, they seemed like a good investment.

  • I did another vertical ATC last night too. The eyeball things were my original attempt at vines covered up by a layer of gesso and acrylics.
