Gustav's Glory


I just finished a painting a bit ago for someone who just commissioned it this week. I admired her knowledge of both my busy-ness working on all the other commissions I have and the fact that acrylic dries much faster than oil. She pointedly asked if I could get an Eiffel Tower painted in acrylic in time for her to give it as a gift on Saturday. I agreed. Here it is! I'm realizing the energy I can have when painting in acrylic! Most people think that I can't possibly render a painting with the texture and energy in acrylic that I'm known for in oil. Well, YES I can! Here's proof. And it got done FAST! What do you think?
