I've been trying to figure out how to paint for a little while now and I just finished my first acrylic painting. It's called "Shiner"...everyone loves having injuries to show off and there is a little bit of pride in battle scars. This guy is clearly in bad shape, but he's pretty smug with himself. It's acrylic on wood panel with a gloss varnish topcoat.
This piece was previously posted in progress. Here it is finished. The leaves are cut and painted wood, the fan is cut and assembled wooden rulers, there is a layer of Plexiglas over the image of Mary that is scratched and impregnated with inks.
