Broken glass

Abstract painting by Vicky Christensen, acrylic on 14 X 18 inch canvas
I liked using the Fineline applicators so much I ordered some more and put them to work in this painting. I spritzed the canvas with water before starting to draw with phthalo blue, turquoise phthalo and yellow high flow paints. The damp canvas caused the high flow paints to flow and bleed. I followed up with transparent glazes of phthalo blue and quinacridone nickel azo gold, then lightened up some of the painting with a translucent white glaze.
