Exploring Acrylics as Watercolor

While traveling extensively  from New England to California this summer, Kris has been working with acrylics, both on canvas and watercolor paper.  By treating acrylics as watercolor, she can achieve the same ethereal lighting of a watercolor painting, as a result of transparent layerings.  At the same time, acrylics permit her to incorporate the more vibrant colors and the richer textures and blending ability normally associated with oils.  Her three newest paintings are Trout Run (acrylic on canvas), From Emma's Garden (acrylic on watercolor paper), and On Mrs. Jenning's Sideboard (acrylic on watercolor paper).  In case you were wondering, Kris is an avid fan of Jane Austen novels, and the  florals are named after two of Jane Austen's more colorful characters.
