Painting Over Safe
The first thing I noticed when I walked back into the studio last night, and again this morning, was that yesterday’s painting on the canvas looked very safe compared to the three previous versions of the pose. There wasn’t anything wrong with it, it just looked safe. I’ve been trying to get myself painting on…

Figure on Canvas
I’m supposed to be finishing some 30×30 boards, so obviously I went and did other things instead. I painted this in acrylic on a 16×20″ stretched canvas. I am not sure if I am going to keep the flesh tones like this, or go off on a tangent inspired by yesterday’s oil stick piece. I…

The Vivienne Tribute Portrait
I have a list of people that I am interested in painting, and when I added The Vivienne to that list I did not imagine for one second that I would be painting them following their death. RIP queen, 32 is far too young to have left us. I think I have finished my tribute…
