Here is the finished painting. I added some gold leaf to the vase.
Gardenia in Blue Vase, 30x22, Chroma Acrylic (Free Flow and Classic) on Arches 140# CP |
I'm not unhappy with the final product, but would probably have been more careful with the gold leaf. Putting that glue on is like putting on miskit, and you have to be very careful with the placement. In fact, in hindsight, it would have been better just to have painted in the gold but, that's what experimenting is all about, isn't it?
I liked the products. The only difference I thought I noticed was that the fluid paint dried out a bit quicker than the Golden and DaVinci fluid acrylics do, unless that was my imagination. I should probably do a comparison to the G and DaV paints, but don't think that is really part of the paint trial.
