Putting more thought into it.

This may be a new topic I consider undertaking....I'm going to take photo's of faces from different wars/conflicts, so soldiers, civilians...etc and reinterpret them either digitally or traditionally, trying out different colour palettes and painting quite loosley while still trying to stimulate an emotive response from the viewer.

I think these will be produced quite large:

Please feel free to pass on any views, comments or feelings you have on this topic!!:thumbsup:

The first here was taken from a ref photo of a Marine in the Iraq war:

William Orpen - "The English Nude"

My study about 45 mins.

Master Studies

I try and do a few of these, you lean so much from the artists at the top of their game.

The reclining figure is by William Merritt Chase & The other (still a work in progress) is by Seignac.

Time Flies.......

Well time flies when Yom having fun!

It seems some time now file my last entry, married life and work have gotten is the way of me doing anything of late, but here are a few things I've managed to get done!! And some wedding pics!

Married Life Approaching

A week today I'll be a very lucky married man.

So I don't think I'll have much time for doing some arty stuff while on my wedding day or honeymoon.

I have started a Digital piece which you can see here, still a lot to do on it, probably finish it after the festivities!!

Life 11/6/08

Not really been doing much of late as this blog can account for; But have managed to be getting myself to a local life group.
Here are some Life drawing I have been doing over the past few weeks, differing media and sizes.
Hope you enjoy looking as much as I enjoyed creating!!
