Limited Edition Prints by Daniel Peci


"Green room" 
I started doing prints of some of my paintings, going through the selection process of images right now, they will be edition of 20, signed and numbered.

                                                      "Lightness"
For now I'll be printing them at a standard size of 8.5x11 inches, I might decide to go larger in near future, the quality and color is very true to the originals,













"Antique door"
They are printed on a card stock paper, matte finish, that's how I like them, if you wanna see which prints are currently available via auction please

"Carrie" Female profile 5x7 Alla prima oil portrait painting


5 x 7 inches Oil on Canvas panel
Full profile here, I visualized this painting in my head first and where do I want the face to be exactly and decided further right, makes it more interesting instead of the usual middle of the canvas placement, it also points where she's looking in a more direct way.

"Red cover" 6x8 Female nude and article in Professional Artist magazine

6 x 8 inch Oil on canvas panel

Here's a new nude from last night, it has a nice color play throughout the painting, when figuring out the composition I try to focus on the things that 'matter' and leave the other objects within the interior of secondary importance.

Also there's an article mention about my work and selling art online in the new July/August issue of Professional Artist Magazine.

"Reclining female nude" 6x8 Original figurative art daily painting


6 x 8 inch Oil on linen on Panel

I really like these Robert Simmons Signet brushes that I just started using, they're great for applying heavier strokes of paint and they're also very flexible, for the middle values and transitions I usually use a mongoose brush, so I balance between the two, mostly flats though...

This scene has a certain meditative quality about it, it creates a nice calming effect when observed, at least it does for me.

Portrait commission


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.

The trumpet player - Figurative gallery art by California artist


Sold
5" x 7" Oil on gessoed panel
This little trumpet player brought music to my painting, it's funny how both music and painting co relate with each other with the notes and tonal values and also setting up the composition.

Girl with a red scarf - Female portrait of a girl oil painting - Gallery paintings


Sold
4" x 6" Oil on canvas panel

This portrait has a sort of religious quality, maybe its the posture of the figure or the little girl's face looking down that adds to the spiritual theme of the portrait, still I think maybe its just the purity of a child that emanates that religious/spiritual feel that I find very intriguing and challenging in my attempt to translate that on the canvas.

Japanese cup with hydrangea Art painting still life by artist


email me if you wanna purchase this painting
6" x 8" Oil on canvas panel

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.

Oriental pair - Painting a day Still Life by the artist


5" x 7" Oil on canvas panel
This still life setup had a certain softness that I wanted to translate on the canvas and it a was a nice combination of greens and the warmer tones of the chinese pot.

Urban philosophy - Fine arts Figurative artwork painting


SOLD
5" x 7" Oil on canvas panel
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.

The Seer - Art Old man Male portrait Gallery oil painting on canvas



9" x 12" Oil on canvas
I did this painting some time ago but recently I decided to do a few finishing touch ups (actually more then a few) so there's some heavy and expressive brushwork on it now and it merged quite well with the layer underneath to add more character on the old man's face, I usually try to keep the original spontaneity and freshness when doing changes like this.
