It's been a while since my last post! I took a long break for Christmas and New Years, very refreshing :) But now it's back to work, there's so much to do, including a very large commission (the panel of which is currently staring at me, trying to intimidate me with its size!)
I painted this piece long before Christmas but neglected to post it until now. I love the bluffs at sunset, all these...
I played with the surface a little before painting this piece. I like the feeling of linen (because it's finer than canvas) but it's still a little too porous for my liking. I prepped this one by applying a pretty thick coat of gesso with a palette knife. I really liked the result, maybe I'll try it with some old canvases I have lying around.
