hi, I paint with acrylic, that particular piece was done on framer's backing board which is very similar to illustration board (though a bit cheaper) I prefer to paint on MDF which I prime with about 6 layers of gesso first, though the nature of the image a day project doesn't allow me the luxury of that level of prep. hope that helps.
Great, love the technique. I do digital but getting the urge to get the paints out again after a long break.
ReplyDeleteWhat type of board do you paint on, is it just primed hardboard?
