Horse skull

A couple days work done in the mornings with the natural light. Painted on linen on board. It was a natural linen coated with a clear acrylic ground. Like the color of the linen and a little still shows through. Dislike the acrylic ground as it is too rough. This landed up being a lot of small passages laid over and next to each other to build up the whites.

  1. great job! love the set up and lighting . The level of detail is perfect ...not knife edge exact but clear forms and GREAT soft colors!
    Its a really arresting painting.
