Hi everyone, Doreen Velin here! Today, we’re diving into an exciting texture experiment—creating the rich, organic look of leather or cork using acrylic paint. Inspired by a night of country western line dancing (yes, really!), I wanted to bring a rugged, vintage texture to canvas.

What you’ll learn in this video:
🎨 How to blend warm browns and yellows for a realistic leather base.
🖌️ Layering techniques to create depth and aged, natural texture.
🔵 The magic of Payne’s Gray for subtle blue undertones (just like pine beetle wood!).
🫧 Using unconventional tools like bubble wrap for incredible textures.
💡 How to turn this into a perfect background for florals, mixed media, or collage.

This simple yet effective painting method can be used for so many creative projects—from rustic art pieces to textured backgrounds for pressed flowers or abstract designs.

✨ Let’s experiment together! If you try this, let me know in the comments how you’re using it in your own art. Don’t forget to subscribe so we can keep building our creative community! 🎨💕
