Backgrounds on Canvas WIPs

I didn't want to waste leftover acrylic paints when I was working on my mixed media portraits, so I used it on these 5x7" gallery canvases for the base layer for future work. Sometimes I use the extra paint on pages in my art journals as a starter layer too. It makes for some interesting combinations sometimes.

The heart one at the back is a finished piece ready for a final coat of gel medium. I did it during the grieving process after losing my dad.

So many ideas and projects; so little time! :)
