Here's a slide show of how I painted the 'Fantasy Castle at Sunrise', an acrylic on canvas painting, painted over a period of 10 days.
I took one photo first thing every morning until I signed the painting. Some days I could do more work on it than other days. Sometimes I just had to wait for the paint to dry. Even with acrylics you sometimes have to wait for the paint to dry !
The painting will be varnished after a few weeks when the paint is throughly dry.
