Paintings
I am mostly a self-taught artist and while experimenting with different mediums, I quickly fell in-love with acrylic paints. I prefer to work in acrylics as I love this medium for its versatility. It can be watered down to accomplish the effect of a watercolor painting, or applied thickly to create texture and give the piece more dimension. In some of these works I have incorporated other mediums such as modeling paste and collage as a way to make the piece more interesting.
