David Wargo Gallery

Fleur-De-View

Notice how David has made use of acrylics in this Fleur De View. In addition to being quick-drying, acrylic paint is also extremely versatile. For example, it can be used for a multiplicity of fine art painting styles. Also, like watercolour, it can be applied in the thinnest of glazes, or like oils, it can be applied more thickly in layers, or even impasto direct from the tube. Moreover, improvements to the quality and range of available acrylic pigments have greatly enhanced the richness and tonality achieveable. Lastly, unlike oil paint, it doesn't crack, and unlike watercolours it doesn't fade. David's use of acrylics is well documented throughout his professional career. In the Fleur De View he makes the images appear as if they will jump off the canvas.
