Description
“Pieces of Summer” by Trevor McDonald suggests the heat and colour of a blazing July day – deep reds, hot yellows, and the relief of almost completely dark shadow. You may be an admirer of the untamed beauty of nature or simply appreciate the forceful allure of abstraction in painting. Either way, this work of colour field abstract painting beckons you to contemplate the fierce interplay between the elements and their potentially life-changing might.
Contemporary artist’s acrylic paint is a fast-drying medium composed from pigment particles held in an acrylic polymer emulsion. It can be dissolved in water and applied in thick streaks or thin washes. In contrast with oils, artists’ acrylic paint has a synthetic vibrancy of colour and a glossy finish.
In recent years the technology of acrylic paint has advanced significantly with the introduction of high-performance acrylics. These have properties similar to oil paint such as slow drying times and increased flexibility. This means artists can work on the painting surface for a longer period of time before the paint dries. New acrylic paints also have improved lightfastness and are more resistant to fading over time.
