Fairy Tree at twilight - acrylic illustration speed painting

Hi guys! In this video I painted on a teeny tiny canvas, about 2.5"x3.5", for a contest held by my local art store.

I haven't painted in acrylics in a long time, so this was a bit of a challenge for me. I didn't really have any acrylic paints either, mostly (old) craft acrylics, some random ones I've bought to get back into this medium, and then my sister let me borrow some Golden acrylics, which were lovely!

I hope you enjoy watching! Let me know how I'm doing in the comments =)

Materials used:

• Golden acrylic paints in phthalo blue and primary cyan.
• Daler & Rowney acrylic paints in neutral grey and naples yellow.
• Art Advantage acrylic paint in dioxazine purple.
• Craft acrylic paints in various colors.
• Brushes: Princeton round 4 and 20/0, Princeton Select lunar blender 1/8" and spotter 5/0
• Pre-stretched mini canvas, size 3.5"x2.5"
