Messing Around with Mixed Media

I have been unfaithful to watercolor painting and painting with acrylics all last year.

Acrylic painting is a nice addition to your painting skills. When you use acrylic paint you can slather it on, cover up mistakes and best of all paint with white paint! 

I still love watercolors and sometimes paint a subject in watercolor first before I paint it on canvas with acrylic paint. 

I'm teaching a few acrylic painting classes these days around San Diego. I even dipped my toes  into mixed media last week by pasting textured papers to my canvas  and then painting with acrylics on top.
