I worked on backgrounds last week in an effort to sort through some of my paint stash. I used up some pearl acrylic paint housed in fine tip bottles meant for a variety of techniques. I found more than a half dozen which had solidified beyond use and several that still had viable paint so I tore apart some cardstock postcards that I had in my stash and used those as substrate for these fun backgrounds. Generally, several colours of coordinating colours of paint dug out of the bottles and smeared with my fingers into some painterly backgrounds. I spritz water on those who were too thick to spread well and then mixed in other colours which made some very cool backgrounds. So in the end, several bottles were put in the trash and the others returned to their bins with more room. I will be making more of these as time goes on!! They are very pearly!!! Therese
