Today I decided to paint over a painting of red tulips that I did when I first started painting with thick acrylic paint. First, I painted over them with a dark pink (this one not shown). I wasn't too happy with that so I added in some white. Then I decided the leaves & stems needed to be thicker (2nd photo). Next, oh my, the jar looks wimpy. So on & on the thick paint was piled on with the palette knife, really, really, thick (3rd photo)!
Oops, too thick, too messy & playing around in it didn't help. Knowing when to stop is not always easy.
