ORIGINAL CONTEMPORARY ACRYLIC PAINTING BY COLLEEN SANCHEZ, HAWAII

TI LEAF STUDY II
by Colleen Sanchez

Original contemporary impressionist style painting
10 x 14 Acrylic on Cloth
GIFTED


The Ti leaf, especially the red ones really interest me. There are so many color variations in the leaves depending on the light they are in at certain times of the day. I decided to experiment with something similar, but also a little different from the watercolor on paper I did a few weeks ago. This one is done on cloth using liquid acrylics. I used a soy wax resist with 3 layers to complete. I love the more impressionistic result that I ended up with.
