#13 Mixed media painting/drawing
9 x 9 inches approx, Oil pastel, water colour and acrylic paint on paper
Being a big fan of all things BAUHAUS I decided to produce this work with that in mind.. Having no initial concept other than considering the work of Lyonal Feininger and Paul Klee I allowed myself an hour to complete this art study.
Oil Pastel is not a medium that I like or enjoy working with as I have often felt that lacks subtlety and finesse… However with this piece I applied several rough layers and with some heat and used a tissue to blend and smooth the colours crating a subtle base… The water colour and acrylic paint was added to test the effects.. The water colour was repelled far more than the acrylic but still made some interesting effects, with some fine lines that have a broken and bobberly feel or a thin textured wash… # 13, Unlucky thirteen not a chance that’s right…. as I feel very pleased with this piece, but please let me know what you think and leave your comments.
