Solitude...

Lightning, thunder, rain, and gloomy skies today.  Perfect time to work in the studio and finish a painting I started yesterday.

Finished work - oils on 20x20 gallery-wrapped canvas

Quick pencil sketch over an acrylic-painted background

Oil painting using a limited palette

Rather than using a rag, wipe the excess oil paint onto the background

Lightened up the background by brushing over the wet paint with Gamsol and little white oil paint
