I worked on the background with water mixable oils. A bluish gray around the vase (to complement the orange hue from the vase), becoming more darker at the edges.
This is the rough block in using acrylics. I use acrylics in the beginning stages because they dry quickly. I will be painting using Water mixable Oils later on.
This is one of the many vases that my husband and son bought from their vacation at Peru. I liked the native design on this small vase and wanted to paint it. I will share pictures of the work in progress with you.
A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself - Abraham Maslow
… and that is why I paint!
