Description acrylic on canvas.

It's finished, dropped it off at the gallery this morning. I prefer it's original name, Marquee Moon, because it sounds a lot cooler and is an obvious reference to those who are familar with the inspiration behind it, Television. We'll see how it does in the auction Sunday. I dunno.

If you look closely, you can see a couple faces/heads.

UPDATE: it went for $40, but not too bad for a benefit auction without that many people there.

Beautiful piece, do you mind me asking, what was your technique?

Acrylic on Canvas?

What kind of brush?

How did you brush it out?

Just a curious observer,

don't hesitate to check out some of my stuff, you might find some similarities!

Very nicely done! What medium did you use; I noticed some strokes in the image so I would assume that you used a form of paint..but I would prefer asking you so I don't look foolish. hehe

Thank you! Yep, I used acrylic, something I normally don't like to use, but I was in too much of a hurry for oil.

Ooooh, I absolutely love using acrylic...sadly I cannot afford to! Unlike now, when I was in high school the use of all art utensils was simply provided for me by my parents paying school taxes.

at first i thought this was some kinda vector-work of some sort... (in the preview)
and when i clicked on it i was positively suprised to see the "paint marks"

how many faces are there?! if you'll even tell...
i can see one for sure, the others seem more like my own little make-believes... you know, like when you look at the clouds and see... some animal, or something


vewy noice!

I remember....
I love making pieces for a good song or band. I've found abstracts to be the best way to do it too.
I love the marquee moon myself.
