A painting for my mother-in-law to be.
 |
Stage I: Prep |
 |
Stage II: Laying down a foundation of colour. |
 |
Stage III: Blending |
 |
I wasn't really happy the results so I decided to start afresh. |
 |
I wanted more of a glowing feel. |
 |
But ended up with more of a sunburst. |
 |
"Please, Hunny Bunny, can I paint too?" |
 |
"Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you..." |
 |
"Crux Invicta" |
 |
"Ta da." |
 |
"Look at me! I'm an arteest." |
 |
"A little dab of paint here, a little there." |
 |
"Hmmm, I think it is missing something, ahh yes, the cross.." |
 |
Phase IV: Palate knifing in the cross. |
 |
I do contortionist work on the side. |
 |
Behind me, that is Assyrian for: "You are in trouble Mister.", because I'm taking a selfie while standing on a chair. (Really, I was using the phone camera, like a mirror, to view the top edge of the painting better, but shot a selfie while I was at it.) |
