Painting - Day 05 - 15th hr

Over the weekend, I bought 5 old paintings from home to school. So today I had plenty of canvases to do whatever I please. I did started drawing on one of the 24"x48" canvas at first with blue paint, and then I pieced them together for a bigger scale... Because I saw Paul using a large scale when I went in on Saturday... it made me think and I thought I should too since the Great Hall is really big. So I put two canvases together and made it 24"x96".

The started of a new painting today:


Phase 1

I was very concerned about proportion, so I blocked it out with black gesso first.

I really liked painting on top of this dypitch project that was made from Feinbergs 2008 class, where I worked with twine, toth picks, tissue paper, strings, egg shells, and my own hair.

Phase 2

Started covering shadow areas with red, and yellow where the light was hitting.

Last Phase of the night...

I went in with blue to re-do the proportions again...and lining...
Now I'm just praying the face don't come out scarey with this bottle line drawing technique... :: fingers crossed ::
