Sharon Elton @sharonelton (30756) • Lichfield, England 1 Feb 24

This picture was supposed to be an acrylic painting in the watercolour style. It didn't quite go to plan! I did it following a demonstration in my new book Acrylics For the Absolute Beginner. I got my cobalt blue out of my new...

Today's art project - work in progress.

Sharon Elton @sharonelton (30756) • Lichfield, England 16 Nov 23
