Oil
A couple of weeks ago I posted a painting from this same reference photo, but it was on a long, skinny canvas. It had been done as a palette knife painting using acrylics. This is also a palette knife painting, but I used oils. It was much easier to paint since the oils don't dry quickly. The first one looked a bit more abstracted because I had lots of specks of the black underpainting showing. Below is a picture of the first one. Which do you like better?
Also this week, I finished the bisque firing for all of the tile mural pieces. As long as I don't break any, I can start painting. I will first paint the 'practice' mural that I made from the first pieces I cut that were too small. If that turns out well, I can paint the real thing. If it doesn't turn out well I guess I will just sit down and have a good cry....
