Artist's Comments
blond Hair, blue eyed Innocence
Acrylic on canvas 150 X 200 cm Jan 2009 This is my biggest painting to date, I htink the next one will be slightly bigger but this is prob my limit as my studio cant accomadate anything larger !! Anyway I did a monchrome as I wanted to see how i got on with working on a large scale canvas for the 1st time. I am pleased with te final outcome and may do a few more similar in the future. This painting revolves around Hyper realist imagary and a photograph that only exist through digital manipulation and / or a painting. I'm going to varnish it with a gloss finish and this will bring out the darker tones a bit more. I always photograph the artwork before varnishgin as its more or less impossible to get a decent photograph because of the glare that the varnish produces. |

"Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about." Oscar Wilde
the hairs great, your getting better wih that magic brush thing.. well done..
and of course the size 2, it s a great size, your biggest on one panel to date...bet its got a big impact, when am i seeing it in the galleery, book launch?
and also its on canvas, you sticking with canvas, how was it to return to canvas... i think its probs not such an issue cos of the size, but something small, i imagine you would still be tempted by panel?
the hair is a mixture of airbrush, my magic paint brush and water colour pencils. I needed to build up lots and lots of individual hairs, then airbrush over them to blend them, then just keep repeating the process.
yeah this for book.
i wouldnt do a small painting on canvas, but the larger one are easier and seem to work better with my method of working.
lol next one is slightly bigger at 200 X 160 cm
