oil on canvas 9x12" sold

History...last Sunday Danica Patrick was the first woman to win a major motor race ...wrong in my books that is still Michele Mouton,she won plenty of rally's and was nearly world champion beating all the big guys.still an excellent result for this feisty little lady and the IRL!remember Lella Lombardi,Desire Wilson and Davina Galacia....

decided to enlarge this little acrylic into a larger oil on canvas and like to show you my progress...


very little drawing in this one,i like to start with blocking in the the dark colors,
using a large brush and very thinned paint

the thin paint dries quickly so i can block in the other big shapes,not interested in details,working loose,making mistakes that will later show up as movement!

constantly comparing the large color shapes,to see if they work together,adjusting values to keep things far away or up close

things are taking shape now,slowly trying to make sense and details...

here i decided to move up the first three lights,due to the difrent dimensions of the original,

the rest is just finishing off,correcting mistakes and/or creating a few more...

and here we are...

still need a few touch ups,blueing the distand track,play a bit more with the lights...

but this is enough for one session,will let it dry first.

i'm pleased i managed to stay loose,always easy to over do things when working bigger

but if anything,i think i used even less brush strokes
