I absolutely LOVE painting the Country Club Plaza for the holidays! Always inspiring, this place is celebrating it's 100th year! Though I've painted these gorgeous streets multiple times, I've never chosen acrylics to do it with. I've been painting a great deal lately, so it's wonderful to stretch into a different medium for a bit. I'm using a do brush technique with heavy body acrylics, without water. They build up with a thicker, more opaque quality this way. And the color pop of that acrylic paint is also very different from my oils. Such a great change! The best bonus is that the painting dries very quickly, so I could frame it up the same day! This one is now showing at HDR Inc in Kansas City along with 14 others. It is the 3955th painting in 3955 days.
