Orange Impression
Oil on panel, 10x8 |
Today, I am painting my breakfast - and getting impressionistic with the fracturing technique I just learned! I modified my methods a little, and perhaps the edges are not as broken as on Tuesday's painting. It is fun to apply such bold color, as this is not my norm. This experimentation is such a great way to keep inspired and fresh - even if it takes me to some crazy places! At one point, I set down a brush and went to pick up a slice and eat it! Big no-no! No eating while oil painting! I don't want to ingest heavy metals - and there are a LOT of cads in this painting. This is the 69th in 69 days. I hope to work on a large painting next :)
do you draw before brekfast?!
ReplyDeleteit is too hard for me :)
I don't eat until I am up for a while. I had to paint early this day - because I knew how busy I would be the rest of the day :)

Love this technique. It looks as it would work very well with acrylics. Bit less heavy metals in there ... ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I think you could do this easily with Golden Open Acrylics. I almost always used acrylics until 2 years ago. Once I started using oils, it is hard for me to go back :)
DeleteNice technique you have going there, keep it up.

Thanks for the encouragement, Randall! A new technique can be a little daunting - to say the least! I will keep trying it out on new subjects :)
