FINAL


Here we are at the final steps ,I'm glazing on thin layers all over the painting , adding shade and detail .This is a slow part ,I even bring it up from the studio so I can view it as much as possible before adding more layers. I like how Airy and Fresh this painting is and have to be careful not to add too much .The main colors I use for Glazing is Minnesota Pipestone and Lapis Azule and a little Sedona Red .I treat the body just as I do the Landscape using the same colores in the Glazes.

Middle Round


When I paint, I move in a circle and focus on getting the paint on every part of the canvas. This is the middle stage and everything is very light and fresh, allowing the base coat to peek through.
