This 8 by 10 acrylic on gessoed masonite is $75.00 and can be framed like an oil painting. This painting was done in the glazing method. After the first layer of paint is painted, it is allowed to dry and then the areas which need to be pushed back are painted in a thin layer of blue paint. This glaze gives the water a cohesive appearance. It also darkens the lighter areas and gives the blue a bit of a value adjustment.
