Quick-n-easy acrylic painting


So I decided to go out and buy some acrylic paints for myself. The faster drying time was a clincher, but not having to use turpentine helped too. I am sure I will use the oils too, but I think I am leaning more towards acrylics right now.

I came across this painting of two love birds silhouetted against the evening sky on Pinterest, and loved the simplicity of it. It was a perfect painting to try in acrylics too - the entire painting just took a few hours to finish.

"The fat one looks like me" said my husband. I couldn't agree more.
