"For a Yellow Room"

A commission for a friend, meant for a yellow room.

For the "underpainting" I used artist's (liquitex) acrylic spray paint (oranges, reds, and yellows). I then added countless layers of heavy-body acrylic paints (some mixed with stucco, some heavy-gloss medium) on top with a palette knife. This painting has a sculptural quality that I find to be engaging and visually successful. Photographs aren't a substitute for seeing the real work, but as usual, it's all in the details.
