Golden Days, 16x14 canvas, modeling paste, paper, fluid acrylics, gesso
Thanks to my friend Paula, I am enjoying
lots of experimenting with Golden fluid acrylics.
I have posted about them previously,
how just a little goes a long way to achieve
vibrant and striking color. They are a bit pricey, so my palette
remains small.
This past Saturday, Paula came over for another
art play date & generously brought
her collection of fluids to share.
I made the above collage on 18by14 watercolor paper
with painted tissue, gesso, and the Golden's fluids.
I happily tried a bit of everything she brought over.
Thanks Paula!

Play dates with artist friends are so much fun! Lucky you! Gorgeous colours and textures.
I mix the fluid colors with regular and heavy gel mediums and the color goes a long way...nice texture and colors!
I am experimenting with Golden gel mediums right now...and you have interested me in wanting to add the liquid colors. Peace, Mary Helen
Carole, yes art play dates are sometimes just what the doctor ordered!
Blue Sky, I have to give your method a try....so far I've been mixing the fluids with liquid acrylic with good results.
Mary Helen, give the fluids a try...the colors are intense & happy at the same time!
