    I like the one without medium better. It has a softer texture to the lines. I suppose it all boils down to what you want out of the piece though. The one with medium has very lovely "crackling" (I think that's the term) which would look really nice in a variety of projects.

    I don't see much difference between them. But if i have to be meticolous, without medium the cells are smalliest but with medium i see on the canvas some colour cracks. To be honest i don't know if these particularities depends by the medium presence or not...but if i had to choose, i would choose the "without medium" one.

    First of all, I love your work. I'm new to acrylic painting, so excuse me if I ask a stupid question. I really like both of them, but I think I would choose the one with the medium. Does the medium cause the cracking or is that from drying to quick? One other thing, I love the music you have in the back ground. Is there anyway to get a name or title of the music? Thank you for your beautiful videos.
