Not too many posts going on lately.  Too much time in studio and the weather is so nice how can I sit at a computer!? Anyways, this is my most recently finished painting.  Its way better in person, the luminosity and texture of the paint, the scale, and the details all have a richer presence in real life.  I’ve included some details for clarification.

Believe me this is not digital. A big part of this work was about layers and I had a good time laying lots of heavy layers of galkyd, linseed oil, stand oil, occasionally damar varnish,  and very little turpinoid.  Even though the surface remained mostly the same inside the inner layers rivers of pigment started to flow.  These still wet paints and mediums were still dripping and shifting inside the painting.  Its much better in person because it is actually 90″ wide and the heavy glazes capture  the light and make an interesting effect.

This painting pushed me further than any other painting has. It underwent so many transitions since its original conception almost three years ago. And now, it is complete… for now.
