Painting pomegranates is hard!!! Here is a first attempt in acrylics. I’m pretty happy with the results I think.
This is a portrait I’m working on in acrylics. Acrylics are a new medium for me so it is taking a bit if time to get the hang of it, but so far so good. I like the fact that they dry pretty fast, are water based (easy for cleanup) and you can layer colors and finish a painting much faster than oils. Size of this piece is 20″ X 24″

Is your FireFox browser slow? Try the following tweaks to speed it up tremendously.
1) Open Firefox
2) Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries:
network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
3) Alter the entries as follows:
Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true” (simply double click the entry)
Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true” (simply double click the entry)
Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.
Now right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0“. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.
4) Close Firefox
5) Re-open and test for speed
