Acrylic abstract with collage elements - image 1 - student projectIt was a joy to just let go while gluing down papers, layering paint and then scraping through the wet paint.
I have a hard time letting loose and it was great to just let go and see what happened! I was a little disappointed that my motivational message and collage papers with Leonard Cohen’s eyes disappeared, but that’s ok! I’ll try thinner paint layers next time.

It was really fun using the pallet knife on top of the bumpy layers created by the paper, glue and paint. Even the sound was gratifying! Thank you, Denise, for always being such an inspiration and delight to watch. Watching you create your art is my favorite reality show.
