Why you would want to do acrylic over oil:  Frazetta would do under-paintings in oil.   Oil under-painting can be done in one color only.  Not burnt umber paint and white but just burnt umber only.   You can draw white lines with the handle of the brush you can wipe off white areas with a rag and just keep working that way till the under-painting is perfect.  Being able to draw white lines with no paint whatsoever is a huge advantage when doing under-painting.    Plus the under-painting looks gorgeous by itself.   It occurs to me why not use acrylic on an oil painted whiteboard?  Or you could do masking with acrylic paint if it comes off so easily.   You could also do scratch-board techniques.   And if that doesn't work then maybe you can do acrylic over oil.  I wonder if it would make interesting textures.   Maybe there's a clear gesso you could apply to an oil underpainting.  It would be nice to be able to do a nice oil underpainting.

Our Chronolical Footprint

I don't know if I've mentioned this but it it occurred to me that most things have a length.   Our bodies are not a mere point in space but they have height width and depth.   What if our footprint in time has a length.    It would mean that we exist in a time segment rather than a point in time.   We don't exist at all times but we exist within a range of times.   Maybe we exist a second in time.  perhaps we exist a microsecond in time.     Suppose we can focus on a time in the future or the past.    This would perhaps explain the phenomena of deja vu.   For some reason our focus is on the past and we re-experience the future a fraction of a second after it happened. What if by continuing to focus on our earliest moment we can actually turn time backward.   We could essentally by continuing to do this travel back into an earlier point in our own lives similar to what Kitty Pri...

If there is a bright center to the universe

If there is a bright center to the universe your on the planet that it's farthest from.  Luke Skywalker said this in star wars.  I'm wondering if that is true of the earth.  The earth was once considered to be the center of the solar system.  I guess after we figured out it wasn't flat.  Galileo was persecuted by the catholic church for finding evidence that the earth was not the center.   Athiests love to bring this up.   Why did christians want to believe that the earth was the center?  It is because we don't want to add to scripture.  We are very much like scientists in this regard.  Scientists or rather people who believe in science only believe that which is verified experimentally.  Whereas Christians feel it is their duty to only believe that which is mentioned in the Bible.  If it isn't in the Bible it isn't true.  We don't believe in reincarnation.  Why?  "It is appointed unto man once to die a...

6th Trumpet

I'm just trying to have an open mind so please forgive me.   The way I see the seals, trumpets, and Bowls is that they are all happening in this order: seal(1), trumpet(1), bowl(1),seal(2), trumpet(2), bowl(2). So the 6th seal happens just before the 6th trumpet.   In this theory I'm proposing ( though I don't stand behind it, It's just a possibility)  We are in the 6th age.  Each of the seals stands for an age or a dispensation..   It even sounds the same.   When you read a will there are things bequeathed or dispensed upon the recipients.   The scroll is a will and Jesus and we I suppose are the recipients of Jesus will.  He died and came to life so he's the writer and the recipient.   Anyway so we are in the 6th dispensation.   The 6th dispensation began at the beginning of the age which is when Jesus was born or when he died.   The 6th seal then took place at the beginning of the age....
