Awesome colours! How large is this painting - I'm guessing it's pretty big, as you've achieved a lot of detail?

Im going the other way, this size uses far to much paint, 3 tubes just on this one. I have received 20 canvas boards today 10"x 8" from the art supplier.

davepuls In reply to M--Art [2011-03-24 13:06:34 +0000 UTC]

That sounds like a good idea! Canvas boards are a good idea - as is buying paint in large tubs!

It's interesting the number of artists who use oil paint for impasto knife paintings - it must take forever to dry! I wouldn't give up my heavy body acrylics for anything...

Yeh they do take ages to dry but that can always work in your favor like scrapeing off and starting again.
I just got a knife portrait commision today which they want on a large canvas so the boards are going to have to wait for a few days
