Today I picked up the palette knife again. Man, is it fun! And as a bonus, it really forces me to paint loosely. I'm sure you can get tight with a knife but the way I do it I can't..lol. Upsides: LUSCIOUS! THICK! CREAMY! LOOSE!
Downsides: I can see this getting expensive! Gosh, did I lay it on thick. Which leads me to Downside #2: I can't even guess the drying time!
5" x 5" / oil on birch panel / $75

ooooh, with stuff like that looking isn't enough.... I want to touch and feel all it's wonderful chunkiness!
Looks great! And sounds fun! The textures from the knife really give the image depth.
ooh yes this looks so cool. Lovin' the textures and festiveness.
Downside: expensive....
Pro: You give your customer/collector a quality product
They pay you for that, from that payment you can afford the quality paint... bottom line... do it, the quality is a reflection of you!
I hope you agree... : )
PS: You love it!!
Thank you! And JanettMarie, YES! I agree : ))
Ciao Kim, eat drink paint... when you use the colours in this way it seem so materic, something to eat... very nice and good.
Great knife work and the texture makes me want to run my fingers through the paint.
