Progress: Andrea


I still have a lot of hair to paint in around her neck. I haven't focused much on painting the shirt yet; it won't be as intensely white, I will be calming it down and bringing detail to it with glazes. Also, other various details yet to add.

While I work my favorite words that are in my mind about paint application are: opacity, trasnsulcency, and thinness, thickness. It is important to me that paintings feel like paintings. Applying all the paint equally will make for a less dymanic and interesting painting. These things you can't truely view or fully appreciate by a photographic reproduction. But I hope you enjoy viewing the work here anyway, even if it's not it's full glory (or even complete!). (This is the nature of the blog!)
