Hey there guys. Finished this oil painting a few weeks ago. Sorry for the horrible picture. For some reason, my camera is terrible and couldn't get the scanner to work properly. Anyway, every once in awhile, I like painting still life paintings. With this one, I originally painted something similar, didn't like it and painted over it. Although you might not be able to tell it in the photo, the painting turned out to be very pretty and much better than the original. It was painted using Gamblin's Solvent Free Medium. This medium makes the paint really gooey and a little awkward to lay paint on top of undried paint. However, it does create a somewhat choppy and fresh effect. It doesn't do a great job making the paint dry quicker though. The painting is a 9x12, if I remember correctly. It has finally dried and is ready to hang. However, I don't have much wall space left, at this point. |
