Today's painting is based again on a photo from the Wet Canvas reference image library. There is something about skies and water that compels me to paint them.
Since painting with acrylics is new to me, I have been doing a lot of reading and searching the internet, including You Tube, for tips and pointers. I have been getting a lot of info from the Will Kemp Art School web site. He advocates painting over a colored ground rather than the white of the primed canvas. For this painting I started by painting the canvas with a mixture of titanium white and alizarin crimson. I don't know if it helped, but it sure was a pretty color.
