Replete with new street piece Aurora Utter Mundane, by Replete on Sept 15, 2008 19:21:18 GMT 1, Here's a new portrait I painted the other day. It's based on the lyrics of the Bjork track Aurora. Especially the last verse that goes:
Aurora
Goddess sparkle
A mountain shade
Suggests your shape
I tumbled down
On my knees
Fill the mouth
With snow
The way it melts
I wish
To melt
Into you
Aurora
Ahhh...
Utter mundane

Replete with new street piece Aurora Utter Mundane, by Replete on Sept 15, 2008 21:37:38 GMT 1, cheers and yeah I was pleaswd with the details on it.
It's painted on a gate post that used to be fully rendered but half of the render has fallen off leaving the breezeblocks underneath exposed making for an interesting surface, part smooth, part textured to paint on.
There's also the old keyhole located in her right eyelid that used to open the gate.
It's next to the gate I painted last month with The Luminance of the Lamp and the La piece.

Replete with new street piece Aurora Utter Mundane, by Replete on Sept 16, 2008 18:54:21 GMT 1, Here's how the piece was built up. A lot of times I love the initial sketch outline as much as the finished piece which is definately the case with this one.

Replete with new street piece Aurora Utter Mundane, by Danny O'Connor on Sept 17, 2008 13:55:09 GMT 1, Amazing work once again! I agree with you about liking the initial sketch as much as the final piece. I'd actually say the middle image, which is obviously half way through the painting process is my favourite of the 3 pics posted.

And Choe uses a sketching technique in his pieces but what you see of it is done right at the end of painting rather than in the beginning giving a rough and loose feel to the work which is a nice effect.

Replete with new street piece Aurora Utter Mundane, by Replete on Sept 17, 2008 20:44:25 GMT 1, It's all done with one cap being a grey skinny with belton premium but it's more about technique rather than tools as I can do the same effect with most caps and practically any paint including car and tile paint but using a skinny with belton does make it a bit easier to do.
