Swans - oils 12 x 22"
My most recent piece and some of the steps:
I started on a clayboard surface with a yellow ochre wash. I think it's more difficult to start on white and if you're not too heavy handed with paints (as I tend to be), some of the warmth can shine through.
The neck of the big swan was just a bit too long so I shortened it a bit.
For me, the water was the most challenging part. I think I did a decent job with it.
Thanks for stopping by!
