Inspired by the texture and beauty of the barks of trees, I made a series of paintings. This is the first one made a couple of years ago.

looks real..do u use a palette knife..if so,r knives used only for oils or can they be used on thick layers of acrylic too?
That's very cool texture!! Nice painting!! Great concept too!
Beautiful, I love the bluish glints. Great texture.
you've captured the architecture of the bark beautifully
Wow, this is really impressive. The paint is so thick, I feel like I can touch this bark. It has such a strong three dimensional quality to it! Great work!
Wow! That's a nice one Arvindh. I like the 'lighting' in this one. :-)
Beautiful detailed work.Looks real and i can c the little fine layers of cracks on bark...how did u do
meghnanmi and Nirmala,
I used a painting knife for this work. the painting knives can be used with both oils and acrylics. Palette knives may double as painting knives too.
to create the three dimensional quality without wasting paint, I used a thick layer of modeling paste (available in all art stores).
