The ART of RECYCLING - WIP

I've just begun a new painting on a piece of recycled canvas. Sometimes good ideas don't reach completion. Time changes everything. A flying peacock-airship will thus become a portrait of a man with a very tremendous opinion of himself and a very bad one of the rest of humanity, especially women, minorities and pretty much anyone else.

First step: outline drawing and background area colour. 

Let's see what happens next.

GREAT LEADER MAO TSE TUNG - WIP 2

Another step in the painting process of my Mao Tse Tung' portrait. Today is the day details must be added to the basic field colours. Details might somehow contradict the overall stylization of the figure, but will still contribute to the painting's final mood and personality by supplying much more information about the portrayed character.

Some of the original turquoise hue will still show through the colour gaps, making all surface tones more vibrant, especially in the red and skin coloured areas.

After this one is finished, I'll start working on  a new portrait. My sketch is already done and the canvas is taut.

GREAT LEADER MAO TSE TUNG - WIP

Having some fun with history: on the day that a new President has been confirmed in the US, I have begun work on a portrait of one of the "Great leaders" of the XX century.
The subtitle of the series is going to be "In the name of progress".

Happy day wherever you are, playing golf or smiling in front of your friends!
