Again quite surreal, I like the suggestion of trees and the hazy light.

Like this Gary. Certainly something surreal about it. You've made a good start with acrylics. If I were to make a suggestion for future work, try adding textures using a painting knife, perhaps in the foreground and trees. Adds a 3D effect which is where thick acrylics excel, without the drying time of oils. Enjoy.

Thank you tony, Ive been debating whether to use a palette knife to paint with today, I bough a good set so I think I will have to give it ago:)

Good for you gary, they can take a bit of getting used to, but I like a bit of texture in my paintings. Easily overdone though. I hope to see some of your results in the near future.

Incidently, there are some fantastic artists on youtube using knives. Just search for "Painting with knives". Mostly in oils, but the theory remains the same - just that acrylics dry much faster.

This acrylics piece was inspired by Tim Gagnom and his painting tutorials.
