Micron pens on acrylic paint and 50+ hours
Comments always appreciated :heart:

Sorry for the long wait on this one, I've been working so much this summer and with so many different stippling pieces going on at once, this one took a little bit longer.

But here it is! I'm free at last!

Unlike most of my pieces, which are done on mylar, this one was done on an canvas with acrylic paint, acrylic gloss, paint retardant, and glitter. (Similar to my Jonny James one: fav.me/d4ys4l3 and fav.me/d4yv0m9 ) There was also a far amount of yarn on this board at one point to give it texture so this board was crazy bumpy. Made my life a living hell, but I really love how it worked with this image. Although, the one thing I've learned in doing this piece is never substitute paint retardant for acrylic gloss.... my micron pens were not very happy with that.

The reference image for this was a screenshot that I took from the Gotye's music video Somebody that I Used to Know: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UVNT4…

I'll post a close-up later!
