Recently, I made a quick little painting, just as a quick little test. And as such, I didn&#8217;t care much about getting the right proportions and stuff like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, I took my sketch block, made a quick and dirty sketch &#8211; on the cover &#8211; and started painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"498\" src=\"https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.10.28-1024x498.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.10.28-1024x498.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.10.28-300x146.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.10.28-768x373.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.10.28-1536x747.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.10.28-2048x996.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.10.28-1200x583.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Not at all proper proportions on the figure &#8211; but a lot better than the sketch ;p<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OK, so I painted on the cover of my sketch block. Big deal. What&#8217;s that got to do with testing something new, or unknown?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, I did mention in an earlier post, about the <a href=\"https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/archives\/2020\/04\/03\/oh-the-possibilities\/\">various acrylic mediums<\/a> I bought, and there was at least one of them I just had to test, to see how it worked. And did it work like I hoped, and mentioned in that earlier post? Eagerly, I brought the sketch block with me to a little, dark room to see \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.19.05-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-376\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.19.05-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.19.05-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.19.05-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.19.05-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.19.05-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/dionaea.com\/blog\/images\/2020-06-11-20.19.05-1200x801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">It&#8217;s dark. It&#8217;s glowing. It&#8217;s \u2026 green.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was partly successful! It&#8217;s glowing in the dark, but I must admit: I had hoped it would take on a bit of the colour I had mixed in, but it didn&#8217;t. It glowed green.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, come to think of it, the test itself was 100% successful. It didn&#8217;t give me the results I hoped for, but now I see what it does, and I can take that into consideration when thinking of other projects where it can be used. Some ideas are already entering my thought train.
