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.

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.

Here is today's life painting, with the painful color scheme I like to call "sunset in an orangegrove while on acid." The second is a self portrait done from life/a photo to varying degrees. It came out a lot blotchier then I would have liked but overall not a total disaster.

Heres another from Figure II.

Here is my latest painting from Eric's figure II class. Had a lot of fun with the surface detailing effects and using acrylic to scumble and all that. Was approx 6 hours from life.
