Maple Leaves - 48 x 84 x 3 inches Acrylics on stretched canvas. Work in progress.

On paintings with such large surfaces I start out using Acrylics like watercolors, gradually building thin layers. Soon after this stage as I become more familiar with the subject and confident, paint is applied with thicker strokes.
