Process
I am a process-oriented painter. I like to figure out my problems on the surface of the
panel. When I see an image I want to paint, I will figure out how to make it happen by trial
and error. Photography is a great tool and visual aid to remind me of what I see from life.
The goal is to take many reference pictures, as many as possible so that I can have a wide
selection to choose from. The next step is the screening process. I look at the reference
photos one by one, and look for interesting spaces I can have fun with. If not motivated to
do a painting by the photo, the process starts again. There needs to be an exciting
composition to look at, high contrasts between darks and lights. I paint using high key
color contrasts.
Once I find an image that I find exciting, I use Photoshop to change the contrast, the color,
and the composition. I print it out, and post it as a reference. I start out with an under
painting, an imprimatur wash, to locate the lights and shadows. The paint is applied thinly
in layers to create a polished glowing look.
Materials The materials used are, oil paint on panel.
I sand down the panels for a smooth finish, apply a layer of rabbit skin glue to seal
the wood, and then apply three to four layers of oil primer before applying the
Imprimatura wash. The paint is applied with a generous amount of medium during the
layering process.
