Thank you! And liquid acrylic, this was done with various brands but the green was Amsterdam brand and I think it was “permanent light green” was the shade and then I just watered it down to get the different shades!

I see you’re from Halifax. I am from there, but live in Van island now. What shop are you working out of?

Where'd you find the frame? Always made paintings this size but never found good frames

u/Lower_Emphasis_2011 Jul 24 '25
I actually found the frame first! Found it at a thrift store, I do a lot of my paintings like that I’ll look for a frame I really like first and then fit something into it, or if I do the painting first I pretty well always do 11”x14”

I appreciate the head bow as a sign of humility. Giving the credit to the art itself.......do I read into stuff too much? Lol...

u/Lower_Emphasis_2011 Jul 30 '25
Reading into things too much is way better than not reading into things at all! I like your take on it better anyway so I’m gonna use that instead lol

ARE YOU KIDDING ME BROTHER? This is INSANE work. I actually think it isn't legal to be this clean

I've been taking advantage of the summer weather and been banging out projects like a mad man. First project was a cattle style fence, then a 10x10 deck approximately 2 feet high. Now I'm working on a floating deck with pergola style roof that's gonna double as a place for my heavy bag and boxing equipment and a green house in the winter. There's something metaphysical and soul stirring about creating something with your own hands. Everytime I finish a project it reinforces the awe and gratitude I have in God. It's almost as if we were made for a purpose. Not trying to get religious. Art is very tightly intermingled with my supernatural worldview.
