Michael WhelanPASSAGE: THE RAINBOW (1991)
Acrylic on Canvas - 36” X 48”
The surface meaning of my Passage paintings is technical—it signifies a passage from working nearly exclusively in acrylics to attaining a greater technical flexibility in oils. 1/2
In spite of my resolution I painted this in acrylics, because I saw the sky in a dream as looking very airbrushed and smooth. Of course the good thing about some passageways is that they go both ways! 2/2
Dr Ro Smith@MichaelWhelan I've done a lot of painting in acrylics, but fallen out of love with it lately. I always wanted to try airburshing, but was intimidated. Any tips for starting out with an airbrush?
