Next Stage for Study Completed / 2009
I have now completed the next stage of the study for an upcoming major work by applying the first layer of color over the grisaille layer.
Study for an Upcoming Major Work / 2009
I am currently working on a major painting and this is one of the studies leading up to the final piece. This study is painted on an 10"x8" custom-made panel. What you are seeing here is the grisaille layer of paint. Grisaille is supposed to resemble a painting in moonlight. This will strengthen the color layers that will be applied next. I will keep you posted via this blog as this painting progresses.
