When we attended APA Las Vegas, we wanted to do something truly unique—so we created an art gallery using our acrylic sheets! Inspired by some of the world's most famous paintings, we recreated iconic masterpieces with carefully selected acrylic colors and finishes, showcasing the versatility and beauty of our materials.

Recreating Girl With a Pearl Earring in Acrylic

For our take on Johannes Vermeer’s Girl With a Pearl Earring, we selected a stunning mix of pearlescent, matte, and shimmer acrylic sheets to capture the depth and elegance of the original painting. Here’s what we used:

• Arctic Pearlescent Shimmer

• Navy Pearlescent Shimmer

• Smoke Pearlescent Shimmer

• Matte Bone

• White Pearl

• Fire Pearlescent Shimmer

• Chocolate Pearlescent Shimmer

• Midnight Pearlescent Shimmer

• Golden Pearlescent Shimmer

• Mocha Pearl

• Light Brown Pearl

• Matte Taupe

• Matte Nude

Each carefully chosen sheet brought out the rich tones and soft textures that make this artwork so mesmerizing. The shimmer acrylics added an ethereal glow, while the matte finishes helped define the softer, more muted areas of the piece.

The Mona Lisa, Reimagined in Acrylic

Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa is one of the most recognized paintings in the world, and recreating it with acrylic was a challenge we gladly accepted! To bring Mona Lisa’s warm, shadowed tones to life, we used the following acrylic sheets:

• Chocolate Pearlescent Shimmer

• Matte Black

• Matte Nude Blush

• Bronze Glitter

• Copper Mirror

• Green Mirror

• Matte Powder Blue

• Matte Denim Blue

• Matte Pewter Blue

• Matte Olive Yellow

The pearlescent and mirror finishes provided a lifelike glow, while the matte colors helped replicate the soft blending of Da Vinci’s masterpiece.

The Dramatic Hands Reaching Piece

For a more modern and dramatic look, we recreated the iconic Hands Reaching image using bold, high-contrast acrylic sheets:

• Black Holographic Glitter

• Black Crackle

• Gloss Black

The holographic glitter and crackle textures added an eye-catching, dynamic effect, making the artwork truly stand out. The combination of glossy and textured surfaces emphasized the dramatic movement and emotion of the piece.

Why Acrylic is Perfect for Artistic Creations

Acrylic sheets are not just for crafting—they can be used to create stunning, high-end art that captures texture, depth, and vibrancy in a way that traditional materials can’t. With a vast range of finishes—from matte and gloss to shimmer and glitter—you can reinterpret classic masterpieces or create original works with a bold, modern twist.
