I thought that I would work on one of the backgrounds I have been making recently. So this piece starts on an acrylic paint background and I layer it with a whole host of different materials.
Acrylic ink, brush pens, ball point pens and watercolour paint all go into the layers on this piece today. But even though it uses a lot of materials, it did not take a lot of time to do. Well, I suppose it helped having the background already made and ready to work on! It is a great art cheat tip!
