MARK ROTHCO STUDY: acrylic on Masonite by Jennifer Richter (August 2011)

- So, Rothco tried to paint emotions. I found this rather challenging. He worked in oils and this is acrylic so I found that aspect very difficult; the paint dried too fast so I could not mix colors on the board. But it was refreshing to do something simpler in design and still have the challenge of trying to layer colors and work out textures as he had in his painting. Fun study.
If you tried this in oil paints, you would have had a grand time mixing colors!
