Oil on thick Illustration Board with a good dollop of Photoshop. 15″ x 20″

3 hour long Alla Prima. Wipe out method. I like the wipe out way because I just
don’t understand how to use white yet. Kinda gives it a haunting monoprint feel.
Keeping in mind shadow welding and large shapes to achieve reality. -Z

Oil on Ampersand Gesso Board. 12″ x 16″

First oil …almost. I had a brief accidental collision with oils this summer during IMC.
After nearly a 2 year wait, Andy, my atelier teacher, finally felt I was ready to paint.
This was a highly anticipated event. This is a 3 hour long alla prima done with
raw umber and black. Using the wipe out method, painted on Ampersand Gesso board.
I’ve been dreaming about painting. My first time felt really remarkable. Also reading
Alla Prima by Richard Schmid which is getting me even more excited. -Z
