Quite often, when I am short on time, I head to my studio and paint a few backgrounds without thinking about the outcome of the painting. If you have multiple sketchbooks, it's fun to lay them all out and drag, drip, and move paint across all the different pages. You can see a great example of this at the end of the video. So freeing!
For this demo, I am working in watercolour, but I use a very similar approach to painting backgrounds in acrylic. Of course, there is no right or wrong way to paint a background! You can use one colour or several, go light or dark, include marks or keep them minimal, and so on.
I'd love to see your approach to painting backgrounds and will definitely be heading over to the hashtag #creativeelementschallenge to soak up all the inspiration!
