Walking In Woods (2006)
Oil on canvas (12" x 16")
Two of my kids, from a photo taking during a walk in the woods this past
summer. For this one, I abandoned my usual technique and started with
a rough sketch of the main shapes, then immediately covered the canvas
entirely with large areas of colour, without much regard for the details
of the scene. I then worked in layers, adding detail and colour but
still keeping it very loose. I am extremely happy with the result which
I think portrays the shapes and the light without getting bogged down
in too much fine detail.
