It's got clouds

My latest work in progress:





This will be the largest single panel painting I've done to date. (I've done a couple of triptychs which are bigger)

I struggled a bit with trying to figure out what it was going to be, but now it's starting to take shape. Hurrah.

Cheers,
Marcel

I erased this guy


Sometimes when I'm getting stuck on what to do with the next painting, I start doodling on the panel, which is where this came from:






Then I eventually figured what I wanted to do, so I erased him a started in on this:

Finished - Red caped robot

Holy shit! It's done! I think I'm going to call it 'Super Defender of the Universe'





The eyes had me really wound up. I find Reflective surfaces extra hard. I think they're ok:




Proper photos tomorrow hopefully!

Red caped super robot

Here it is with the sky and the clouds all finished. Up next, trees and houses. I feel like I'm getting somewhere, but it's hard not to feel like you're stuck in second gear when you're in the middle stages of a big painting like this.

Blue sky morning - ontheeasel , workinprogress

As you can see, I'm working on the big super robot, painting in the blue sky behind the clouds first. Mornings in the studio are nice for painting, but in the afternoon when the sun comes around it turns into a stinkin hot little sweat box. But hey, then I can take my shirt off and paint like Picasso! :-P




Cheers,
Marcel
