Roman Empire Paint

Here are some acrylic paintings that I did from a model.




They took somewhere between 5 to 6 hours to paint. I like how they turned out! This semester was the first time I have ever used acrylic paints and it has been a big change from oil paints. I am starting to get used to them and am starting to like them even though I do miss oils ha ha.

By the way I changed the layout of the blog! I think that it is much better than the other layout. You should tell me what you guys think about it. If you know any other layout that you think would be good you should tell me about them.

A study of Rick for Erik's figure 2 class. Enjoy!

I haven't done a master study in about 1 1/2 years now so I've decided to invest some time in them. I'm starting off using them as value studies but hopefully after awhile I'll take my time on some color ones. The master painters are John Singer Sargent, Frederick Church, and Albert Bierstadt respectively. They each took me about 1 1/2 hours with Photoshop (CS4!). Let's post some of those master studies guys and gals.

The thrid one is acrylic and the first two are oil. Rather rusty with oil and have been doing acrylic all semester for figure 2 so it will take some time to get in the swing.

Sweet stuff dudes, here's a little something I did over the weekend and a little different technique I was trying out in class for portrait with Eric.
