Hello again painting fans.
This week I will be starting a new painting. I will be painting an eastern shore Virginia house in a loose gothic style (early 20th century). The photo that I’m using is seen directly below. I like the various wires and telephone pole shadow and will be painting these. I’ll be using my usual acrylic paints on a 6×6 inch canvas.
I started with a pencil grid on both a print of the photo and the canvas. In this way I was able to transfer the elements to the canvas in an accurate pencil sketch. 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.
Earlier paintings in this series can be seen here.
Open it is.
Had a busy week and weekend. Learned a lot in the process which was actually pretty cool.
What I enjoy about your paintings most is the process, and how transparent you are about that process. I work in one of the sciences where there is a lot of, well, consternation right now because many of my peers are not adequately transparent. Seems we could learn something from the artists.
Heh. One man’s transparency is another man’s aimless wandering. 😉
