Rawson's Head, No. 2
Yesterday I also began a second panel (8" x12", 20x30cm) at
Rawson's Head. As it turned out, I was pretty tired and stopped after I had the basic information.
Today, in the studio, I worked on refining my idea. Since I left the site yesterday at about 1:30 p.m., I didn't really see this effect of the light. Today I solidified it from imagination. There's is still a bit of both crisping and softening that needs to be done, but I'm relatively pleased with its progress.
Do remember that one of the best things about making a grisaille is that you can subsequently make it whatever you'd like.
Thanks to Gerry, Caroline and Bruce for their comments.
And a reminder...
This coming Thursday, June 12th (5-8 p.m.), I'll be at the annual Catalogue Show at my Boston gallery (Quidley&Co, 38 Newbury Street, Boston, MA). This show features a new work by each of the gallery's artists. The paintings are in a catalogue, hence the name of the show.
This year, in addition to my new painting, Quidley will also be showing my painting The Door to the Golden Age.
If you haven't seen it in person yet, you may want to come check it out
before it's off to Quidley on Nantucket. Here it is, all 7-feet (2m) of
it.
If
you live near Boston, and you're a blog, Instagram, or Facebook
follower whom I haven't met, I'd be especially pleased if you'd stop by
and introduce yourself.
I look forward to seeing everyone.
