SATURDAY- UPDATEdocumenting a new painting , by crazyarsemother on Sept 25, 2008 18:47:17 GMT 1, This feels slightly self indulgent but at least I have kept it off the main board I suppose. Not sure what the rules are anymore.
I have been painting this week with a view of getting a new piece or two into the Red Propeller show in London next month. I thought as artistโs careers seem so accessible these days it would be interesting to document the painting as it happens. I have started this one late but I think for the next I will keep tighter documentation.
Anyway, this is a sketch that I started on Monday. There is a photo of it at the end of Monday/ Tuesday and then photos of it now. I thought it maybe interesting for people to see. Because I work in oils it is not a particularly instant process due to drying time and glazes etc. bla bla bla.
Anyway here goes -
Sketch for Plastic Arrival (a preferred method of entrance to Yesyoucanistan) - 60cm x 60cm - mixed media on canvas.
Thursday
Horse still needs highlighting so will put the finished article up.

Don't take this the wrong way but I prefer the horse in the first pic. There's a Francis Bacon thing going on with it which can only be a good thing. You got style!

The painting still needs work. Idoim your not wrong but once you get the hang of them there is only one medium. I don't feel oil painting is represented on here at all.
Angel 41, I painted the first layer coat using quite turpentine heavy oil which did not sit too well on the primer for some reason so I had to paint over it. I actually prefer to just work on the raw (once seized) canvas which I did for all my heads of states - www.redpropeller.co.uk
I am all about learning still so not afraid to change the image then bring it back if needs be or start again. The road is long but I get a studio on Monday. Can't wait.

Anyway I digress. Don't get me wrong, it's still a great image, just thought there was more sense of motion in the first one. Good luck with the studio.

Idiom this is a study for a large painting that I will be doing for a show in London next month. I've never painted a horse before so wanted to ry a few things out. The final piece is about four times the size of this one.
I have done this tonal study tonight.

Liking these a lot. I love the vibrancy (word?) of the colours, but on this occassion prefer the b/w study. Great work.
