So I had to try the front garden again. Yesterday I showed you the CP version. Today I show you the acrylic version. Again, I worked from a black and white image.
This certainly isn't a land-breaking piece. But, I do think it shows improvement. I think the improvement comes from focusing on values, rather than colors. I'm encouraged by this. Thoughts, ideas, what to do next all seemed to flow when I wasn't worrying about getting the colors "right". I was just trying to build up and nuance the values.
Acrylics might end up being fun after all!

Nice work, Rose. I have a love hate relationship with acrylics. I'm getting better with them. You did well.

Thanks Jo. Being so encouraged by your comment, I raced into doing your tree with acrylics. Well, all I can say about it is, it's a learning point. Love/hate and all that. :-) I think I need some graphite to repair my ego. :-)
hehehehe lol i can totally relate Rose :) you did well i love the vibrant colours you used :)
Thanks Belinda, I needed that. It's all part of it, but it is still discouraging. :-)
