Hello, Mr. Gerard, Thank you for responding and taking the time to answer my question and I must say, I truly love your art. I too am an artist, and one other question I want to know, is what kind of medium do you put first unto the canvas before you put the paint, I thought it may be a form of a med gel? I was curious because you liquify the colors first too, so I was interested to find our how you create the flow...I use acrylics and I water down the colors? Is that the same? Thank you again for your time and consideration.
