This is a back-dated post for my archive project, where I am copying over every piece of art I have ever submitted to DeviantArt, with the original submission date or watermarked year stamp, so a complete archive of my work can be found on this website.

Texture was created with modeling paste, applied with a squeezy tube thing and shaped with a small palette knife. To apply the green and blue paint, I mixed each with enough water to break the acrylic binders, and then brushed them on in horizontal strokes with a very soft brush. To keep it wet (and blending the way I wanted) I periodically spritzed it with plain water from a spray bottle. I finished it with a couple extra spritzes to give some extra texture to the strokes.
