Hold me closer, tiny palm trees
Feeling unmotivated this week. Last night I tackled something small... 3"x3" to be exact.
Tools: gessoed canvas glued to illustration board. Prismacolors. Turpentine. Photo taken at LACMA.
I cut this board back in 2006 while at the Illustration Academy. It was originally intended for tiny oil painting portraits, like the one below of Jennifer Coolidge.
The texture doesn't work well here; my usual gessoed illustration board would be better for this experimental style. I'll leave the canvas for thicker applications of paint.
And here's Ms. Coolidge. It's been a while since I have done a caricature/portrait. Who should I do next?
