A New Year begins and this is going to be a great year for myself and the studio. I already have two exhibits planned and several others under consideration. It has been great to hear the comments and praise from the community over my work. It is, after all, for you that I create the art.
People have asked about the process of bringing a painting to life from the first stages to the finished project. Over the next few days I will show how the realistic male figure is achieved.
In this first stage the major elements are laid out with watercolor pencils. As subsequent layers are added the watercolor pencil will liquefy and blend in so that there are no harsh pencil lines.
The model for this piece is named Devon and the actual size is 5" x 7" and is being painted on 100% 140# cold pressed watercolor paper.
