Tasman Turtle - Acrylic Portrait

Have just had a lot of fun creating this portrait of a turtle in acrylic paint. I used modelling compound and metallic paint on the seaweed.

    Thank you Wyn! I love using colour as you obviously do as well. I love your "A question of where we come from" which you did for a NY comp last year. The use of oil glazes and artists inks looks stunning. I may have to do some experimenting.
