Hello again painting fans.
This week I will be starting an entirely new painting. Seen below is my own photo of Victorian house that I took this past October. It is of a type seen in many places across America. I intend to paint it and include the 2 cars as well. I will be using my usual acrylics on an 8 by 8 inch gallery-wrapped canvas.
I started with a pencil grid on both the canvas and a print of the photograph. Then I made a sketch on the canvas using the grid as a reference point. In doing this, I was able to make a fairly faithful sketch of the photo. Note both the sketch and grid in the photo seen directly below. (Next week some actual paint.)
The current state of the painting is seen in the photo directly below.
I’ll have more progress to show you next week. See you then.
