I used to love oil. The problem was the drying time. Too WET!!<br /><br />Thanks for the comment again!!James F.

Answering your questions....
That piece to...Krista-<br />Answering your questions....<br />That piece took me only two hours for the back ground and the building. I worked on the artist later at home. I had made quick sketch on the area.<br /><br />Acrylic can be easy or hard depending to the wind, rain, sun and heat or cold!!! Other than that it is easy!! My first plein air acrylic was a challenge. We started off at 11 am in January 1st with great sun, wind. (37 degrees!) I set up my easel paint and brushes. I would spray my paint, then paint and then spray with water again and then paint then spray my pallete. On I went. I was done in 40 minutes. My friends were just set up!! With oil it easier. Watercolor is just the same challenge. If the paint drys you can lift it up some. <br />Hope this helps. Try it!! I like the fact that the painting is done!! You can go over it again if you want.<br />Thanks for the comment, Krista!!<br />JimJames F.
