Quilted Acrylic Painting
I haven't given up my painting, just starting to incorporating some stitching into my paintings. This is the latest one I just completed. It was painted on regular gessoed canvas and then sandwiched with thin batting and another layer of canvas for the backing. I then stitched around the leaves and the veins of the leaves which made the canvas buckle up a bit giving the leaves a very 3D look. This was what I was planning on happening. It was not a happy accident. Then I painted the backside canvas a mottled solid color to finish it off and also stitched around the edge with a decorative stitch. This can either be floated in a frame or hung with no frame like a tapestry which is what I think I'll do. Saves a lot on framing and still looks great. The painting has lots of texture created with gel medium and layers of watercolor crayon on top of the acrylic. Well that's it for a while. Need to buy groceries clean house before I can do anymore artwork.

It's so lucky for me to find your blog! So shocking and great! Just one suggestion: It will be better and easier to follow if your blog can offer rrs subscription service.
