.Man is unbound, yet the limitations imposed on him are growing bigger, social conditioning and strict rules of movement in a world where the man stopped following the given guidelines and got lost on the way, he ignored the signs and got cast away from the tribe.

I started this painting earlier but it needed more work since there was a lot going on in the background, there's some palette knife on the left that was needed to make an even bigger contrast distinction between the lights and the darks, direct sunlight creates dramatic play between these polarities, so around this particular time is the result that came to life in form of a painting.

6 x 6 inch Oil on canvas

Before I actually compose the still life I like to visualize it, in this case it was mostly color combinations, I like to have an idea what its gonna look like prior to the actual object arrangement, the only thing that wouldn't agree to that was the actual peach, it would just not sit still, you'd think it should just stay flat on the table but no..., its like a sitter that likes to move a lot, I fixated it between the foldings and it seemed to work!

Haven't really painted a still life in a while so I decided to do one yesterday, I had this small antique cup that I used for the setup and I put the flower over it for a more organic effect, I don't really like when the still life is too 'properly' arranged.

I've set it this as a still life prop for one of my paintings classes that I teach, since I knew the flower's not gonna last long I thought I should take advantage of that and do some painting before it withers.A basic color palette was used, yellow, red and blue + white, it gives plenty of color options plus a better cohesion between the colors then a regular full color palette, it was great that I was able to preserve at least the image of the flower since the next morning it was totally gone.

This is a piece that I did recently, it was done in two sessions with the model Ashley, she did a great job holding this pose, even though it may look easy to hold a reclining pose like this, after a couple of hours it can be tiring for the model, also a slight movement of her shoulders or back would pretty much change the whole anatomical structure.

Here's a shot of both the model and the painting taken around the end of the second session.

2010-06-06T21:21:00.000-07:00

18" x 24" oil on canvas

I used an old painting primed with a layer of oil paint in this one, I was experimenting with that set background and trying to make use of it, I found out that you can come up with interesting results but didn't like painting over the glassy surface of dried oil and the edges were harder to control so I had to overpaint certain parts since I wasn't getting the needed control that I'm used to, but I think that changing your approach to paint always yields some new insights.

This came out to be an interesting color study and I was mainly concerned with shapes, values and color patterns and the way they connect between each other in rhythms, the light envelopes all the shapes in this composition and they influence each other creating reflecting light, so nothing is separate as they're all puzzles in the larger picture.

On this piece I used a Robert Simmons Titanium series brush, I don't usually paint with synthetics but I wanted to try this one out, it's a very resistant brush and can take a lot of beating which is good, on the down side it doesn't take too much paint and it leaves rather thinner strokes, overall it's pretty good but I think I'm gonna stick to more organic choices.

The reference that was used for this portrait was a low-res black and white photograph, not a great source for a painting but sometimes that's all you have and when there's a distance involved the opportunity to have the person pose for you is very limited, regardless of that I think it was a good outcome and the essence of the person was captured well.

Portrait commission

2009-10-16T19:48:00.000-07:00

9"x12" Oil on canvas
Private collection, London, UK.

This is a portrait commission that I did recently, I had to work from a photograph that has more then one light source on the subject which is not so great to work from, but sometimes you have to make a compromise and learn something from it along the way.When doing portraits like this the likeness is imperative since the person that commissioned the portrait wants it to look like the actual person not like his neighbour or something.

Here are some shots that I took while working on it...

I start straight into painting, without any preliminary drawing, not for everyone unless you are sure of your drawing skills.I block in the big mass first and start from the left eye, this way I have a reference point that I can judge the rest of the shapes accordingly.

From the left to the right eye, the alignment of the eyes is the key here.

His hair is white as it can be so I have to put that white color there so I can judge the rest of my values against my whitest whites.

I add the desired background that I think its gonna work plus I can get some edgework done even at this stage covering most of the upper portion of the face...
These are just a few key frames from the painting process, maybe I'll do a video soon that will be more explanatory.

I've set this figure up to look at the distance with a sense of yearning, like she's looking for a higher purpose, even though the future is abstract and unknown she has the choice to hope for something better.

This still life composition was all about color and I was trying to capture all the color variables that drew my attention in the first place, from the warmer tones to the cooler violets, I really like how all these colors relate to each other and connect the whole piece together.

Well tomorrow is Earth Day and I thought that I should post a painting that celebrates our mother earth and all the fruits that she's been giving us unselfishly, I'm really grateful for that, hopefully we can raise the awareness of our unity and unseparateness with nature.

I wanted to convey a sense of anticipation in this piece with the female figure turned away from the viewer and at the same time I got a certain calmness with the colors that I used in the background which kinda balanced both feelings at the same time.

This painting is a reflection of today's living, how each of us deals differently with the modern reality and how we handle and experience it in a different way, some of us avoid formulaic ways of living and do it their own way.

This pose was more dynamic since it anticipates movement and it created an interesting overall design in the painting, I like how the warm colors in the background worked out against the flesh tones of the reclining female nude.
