Seascape - Oils over Acrylic

Seascape - Oils over Acrylic

Here is my finished seascape.  I started it in acrylic and then on one of our 'Out and About' days it was chucking it down so instead of acrylic plein air as we have been enjoying I had a go at oils (thanks to Lydia who gave some guidance and loaned paint).

 

I loved it! Its not just the blending that is so much easier it is the colours, sooo vibrant.  I think it really creates a depth which you can't see with acrylic until you varnish.  

 

Needless to say I came home and placed an order for some oils and I have treated myself to some brushes from birthday money (thank you Mum and Shell) always great to be trying out something new. 

 

I'll show you the results.
