The first color layer is underway!!! Tonight I bid adieu to what remains of the underpainting as I begin glazing the aluminum can. More progress photos will follow...
My recent Facebook and Myspace updates have resulted in numerous people asking “what exactly does 97 hours worth of monochromatic underpainting look like?”
ANSWER:
Halogen Bulb and Grocery Bag (Underpainting)
Oil on Panel, 30 x 30 inches, 2009.
WHAT'S NEXT?:
A full week of drying and a little gentle sanding (which I will discuss in a later entry). Then I am on to the color layers. Hooray!
