Next I used thin washes of acrylic paint to tint the background. One of the things I wanted to achieve with the tinting was to reduce the "halo" effect of the torn paper margin around the animal. I used Van Dyck Brown, Raw Umber, and Light Burnt Umber - all Golden liquid acrylics.
I'm happy to see you here and have you join me on my artistic journey. Over the past several years I've created visual art in various media. But beginning in 2019 I am focusing on writing and illustrating books for animal enthusiasts of all ages. Regardless of the medium, my subject is nearly always animals! Don't miss a post!
