Description
Observed at the Humayum Tomb Delhi India, uniformed schoolgirls taking a snack break. Just like school kids everywhere enjoying the respite more than the location. One of the kids was not wearing the regulation blue jumper and this is the result. A Rowney Cryla acrylic base coat of burnt orange applied over the gesso manufacturers finish. Opaque pigments have been used to lay down some areas, also acting as undercoating for sections of the subject matter. Subsequent layers of acrylic paint have been applied laced with Liquidex airbrush medium and deionised water to achieve a wash layer. This thin multiple layering of pigment allows for a degree of luminosity, avoiding the usual flat acrylic finish. Finished with a coat of Winsor & Newton Satin UV varnish, this not only protects the painting, but has a unifying effect. A suggested frame width of at 60mm for this painting. This makes for the best visual effect and prevents warping.
Presentation
Artist Statement:
I suspect like most figurative artists I find drawing and painting the human form wholly embedded with human behaviour. The desire to secure more than a representation of a persons movement, the spilling of light over contours or the various other physical facets is the reason we continue to make paintings. To liberate a recognisable emotion in texture, colour and pattern and to make it still, perhaps this is a measure of a successful painting.
