Painting Process: Burdan/Erebus
I often get email asking about my painting technique, so I thought I would show a step by step process of one of my personal favourite pieces Burdan, from initial drawing upto the finished article
- The figure was initially going to be alot darker, but I felt that it just didn’t work and through out the balance of the backround and the focal point of the hair
- So I started again from scratch, user a paint roller to cover the canvas with a lighter flesh tone, which allowed the dark areas of the previous attempt to show through. This also allowed the charcoal lines to their full impact. I then filled a large brush with thinned down black paint and held the canvas upside down to let it drip upwards.
- The finished piece practically painted itself, I think in total, the final stages took about 4 hours, before I knew it, I was finished!
Some times a painting just comes together better than you can initially envisage, this was definatley one of those
