Quartet


acrylic on cradled birch panels
each 6 x 6 inches

My art supplier had some acrylic inks on sale that I'd been wanting to give a try.  So I ordered a few bottles. Ok, I ordered 12 of them.  I played with them for a while on paper, and then decided to give an idea I had for a set on cradled wood panels a go, combining the inks with fluid acrylics.  Some things didn't work out as planned (do they ever?), and some things I ended up having to redo or rethink.  But overall I am pleased with this fun set of little paintings.  I have them placed in a gift shop.  Think I'll do more.  I had fun with these.
