Over the past week I have been experimenting on a small scale. Looking at the portrayal of the park photographs and how I am depicting them. In many of the small experimentations I have used acrylic and watercolour, applying one on top of the other once the first layer was dry.
I have really enjoyed using the watercolour on top of the acrylic and would like to try this large scale. This however would not have the same effect on the large hardboard I am planning to use as it does on my small paper samples.
I am looking into either getting some strong quality paper to work onto, or whether to use paper as a texture on top of the wood. Both ideas I am still experimenting with as with using the wood I am able to take my paintings to a much larger scale.
