This painting is another experiment using acrylic gel for texture. I'm not sure how successful it is using gel for a realistic painting. This horse would have been a lot easier to paint in oil. Be sure you click on the image for the close up view of the gel texture.
I like the way the color sinks into the patterns made by the gel. I deliberately let the color bleed into the background by spritzing it with water - I was using fluid acrylics.

I love the way it turned out. Great painting!
Great effect on this one!
Really nice texture.
I find the textured effect very interesting. The horse looks really nice. Thanks for sharing.
Unique and interesting and attractive, Carol!!
I think the gel texture gives it a more dramatic finish. This turned out beautifully, love how you allowed the colours to bleed.
Hello,

I always love looking at your work, Carol. The style is so strong with such great texture.

Excellent work!
Your work is mesmerizing. Colors are absolutely beautiful!
Great work! I love the colors you use.
I just discovered your work, fantastic,,,,do I understand that you put the texturizing jell on the top? or mix the pigment into the jell. I am a watercolorist looking to expand, any books you would recomment?

Gorgeous work. I work with oils and metals on canvas and was wondering if there is anyway to do this techique with watercolor?
Your work is amazing!!! Beautiful, clean color!
Carol, it appears that the horse not only has texture, but that you have created considerable dimension with the gel (was it paste or gel?
Thank you so much for perfecting your skills, you bring such a gift to the world! I plan to see you this summer in the mountains!
Hello Carol
We have a lot of customers and friends who would like to know if you ever considered doing some workshops in Europe?
That would be awesome for us who cannot make it all the way to the US.
Thanks
