MIXED MEDIA FUN!

I recently completed a 4-part painting, aka 'quadtych', using acrylics on Gesso Board.  This piece was designed to fit in the corner of our 5th-wheel RV trailer where I have my studio set up.

I've just been exploring acrylics a couple months now.  This one incorporates lots of texture using gesso, painted & textured papers and corrugated cardboard, sand & stones including copper pebbles, prepared tyvek, and lots more.  It was tons of fun to create, and fairly challenging.  The use of metallic acrylics emits constantly changing highlights throughout the day.  All-in-all, my hubby & I really like the completed piece.  I've included a photo of the work mounted in the corner of the trailer.
