Experimenting with acrylic paint

5/8/2017

Acrylic on canvas 40 x 50 cm.
The first is with natural pigments in an acrylic binder the second is just with chemical colours.
I like the translucency and you can work fast.
But with the natural pigments and egg yolk I have the feeling the paintng is much more alive in itself. With the acrylic it easily becomes like a printed image, the image becomes more important then the being of the work. I will probably go back to the tempera technque.

stimme dir zu, links mehr Leben aus sich selbst, rechts sehe ich eine auf einem Kissen sitzende u. vornübergebeugte Frau. Das Blau in Blau gefällt mir auch.
