More Layers
The texture from the layers of clear gesso is interesting, and it gives a good ground for finishing this one up with Conté pencils. I say finishing this one, but I used workable fixative to fix it, and I get extra points for using fixative to fix a drawing on the same day I did…

Legs
This is another mini canvas for the 100 Day project, using up paint from a colour mixing session where I was mixing with cad red and phthalo green plus black and white. Til the morn, Suzanne 753/800

Blue Blue Blue
Day 16 of the 100 Day Project I was playing in my sketchbook with some value and saturation experiments with a limited palette of cad orange and phthalo blue, and black and white. I had some leftover paint, so I put it to good use on another 6×6″ canvas. I’ve painted this one previously, but…

Fitting It All In

It’s weird being back in the studio after nine days with only a corner of someone else’s dining table. It’s almost like starting at the beginning again. I got…

Day 1 Again
I paint every day, and blog about it, and the content belongs to me, not a billionaire tech bro with dodgy politics. The first thing I noticed when I went to my studio today was this overbearing “this is for Instagram it has to be good” thinking. This is not usually something I deal with…

Mini Figure in Oil
This is a tiny painting. It’s 6×6″ (15x15cm) and I don’t know who thinks these things up (me) but I got half way into this little oil painting and started questioning my life choices. The challenge, and it isn’t even really a challenge, it’s just here is a supply of mini canvas boards to do…
