Finished the first painting of a series of 30 large paintings. I had a blast listening to the new roots album undun while I was designing the background. The Nupastel drawing was sealed with the magic medium (polyurethane) and all the yellows in the painting disappeared so I had to come up with a solution for it. The polyurethane created an opportunity to a creative solution. So I carved out the figure with oil paints to make sure that the figures silhouette read well. Although now the figure looked like a cut out. So I had to get the background to interact with the figure some how. This is when the fun really happened. About five hours later it was done. Today was amazing and tomorrow I begin the first bike portrait of 30. Amazing times.
