Poppy Dance: Acrylic and pastels flower painting time lapse video
This is a mixed media painting with acrylic and pastels: Poppy Dance.
I made a movie showing the process, I took my video camera to the studio, recorded most of the process (except a few slides at the beginning and at the end) and then increased the movie frame rate about 8 times.
It was interesting for me to see the process as I seem to be improvising less than what I was thinking I would be. Perhaps it is the effect of the acceleration but it looks like I have a plan 🙂
For this painting I added a lot of layers then at one point you see me scrubbing the background to remove some of the paint because I wanted an aged look and also recover some of my original layers.
I am a Blick Art Materials affiliate and I receive a small compensation for sales. That does not effect in any way the cost of the purchaser’s order but it helps me keeping the content of this blog free.

Thanks Yevgenia 🙂 I had fun watching me painting because I don’t think too much when I do it so it gives a different perspective.

Super bonne idee le film. C impressionnant, moi qui ne faisait que de l’aquarelle il y a bien longtemps, je ne mesurai pas tout le travail qu’il y a derriere l’acrylique !! J’adore le resultat final, orange c ma couleur preferee ! Je fais suivre a mes connaissances !!
