I've swapped stripes for spots in this one! This painting is in acrylics - I'm using Liquitex for the first time and they are quite different to the Daler Rowney/Winsor & Newton acrylics I usually use. They are much more like oils in texture, quite slow drying too, and have taken a bit of getting used to. I like the effect though, worth the time it is taking. Hopefully with the Easter holidays coming up and a fortnight away from the day job, progress might be a bit quicker.

It's looking good already. Love the way you got all that hot sun into the image already, but I don't envy you painting all those spots! LOL
