Actual Texture - An Old Wall and a Door

An Old Wall and a Door
Acrylic on acid free mount board
8 by 10 inches (20.4 by 25.5 cm) with a .5 inch (1.3 cm) white border


In this painting I emphasized the texture on the old wall. I wanted to try crackle medium but it was not in my 2 art stores. I used a pumice medium. I did layers under and over the pumice medium with colors and a gloss medium. When this was dry I scumbled a warm yellow medium over parts of the wall. Texture is usually seen in the light and not seen so distinctly in the shadow.
