SOFT PASTEL
I did much of my earliest work using pastels, but only rediscovered them in 2020. Once again, pastel has become one of my favorite mediums.
ACRYLIC
By painting in multiple thin layers and using glazing techniques, acrylic paintings can have the depth ordinarily associated with oil paintings. Alternatively acrylic is ideal for painting a la prima (all at once), with the entire painting completed at one sitting, or for impasto, which is very textured work, often done with a palette knife.
