PRODUCT INFO
This piece was made with acrylic paint on a canvas board. Acrylic paint dries faster, is less toxic for me to work with, and it gives crisp images. When I painted this piece I chose to work with acrylic because it allows me to move faster and it gave me the chance to create different textures on the feathers with thin layers of paint.
