Double acrylic, what does it mean?

This week in figurative communication class we had a session with a live model. We had 3 hours of the same pose to work with and could chose any painting medium. I decided to continue my experiment with acrylic paints and I'm pretty happy with the results.

Meanwhile for Patch's class another acrylic painting has been completed. For the last installment of the self portrait I chose to do a piece on the stress that can easily pile up that people are to manage in a healthy productive way. However some of us *cough* just carry this stress with us.
