The unparalleled competition showcase for outstanding acrylic artists

Creative energy is the driving force of what it means to be an artist, and how an artist chooses to use that energy is what sets one apart from the others. Some may choose energetic brush strokes creating movement that seems to dance across the canvas. Others may select colors that represent a feeling behind their emotional energy for a particular work. Or creative energy may take a more behind-the-scenes role, where only the artist knows the source of inspiration.

The 6th competition book in the AcrylicWorks series, this volume delivers another show of the best in contemporary acrylic painting, selected from an international call for entries. A rousing blend of instruction and inspiration, these pages feature:

- 127 stunning acrylic and mixed-media paintings by 120+ accomplished artists
- Insights from the artists themselves, revealing the hows and whys behind each piece
- Focus on the power of creative energy, creative solutions, effective approaches and bold techniques
- A variety of subjects--from still life and abstracts to people, animals and landscapes--portrayed in an equally glorious range of styles

A treat for artists and art lovers alike, AcrylicWorks 6 invites you to study these modern-day masterpieces, analyze them...or simply sit back and wonder at their incredible skill and artistry.
