End of March 2013 :
fifteen pictures in the making - partly older pics revised and six completely new ones. Delivery date to exhibition Saturday April 13. Progress seems super slow motion and feels like working rapid piecework....
step one : little drawings. measures 8 x 8 cm colour pencil:
step two: bigger drawings 15 x 15 cm watercolours:
step three: "on-screen" (hehe) acrylic on canvas 60 x 60 cm: charcoal drawing on coloured canvas:
st St
Step four: first colour layer: white heightenings of the parts hit by direct light:
...the painting studio, in fact the TV-, living-, painting-, sleeping-, TVdinner- studio:
step five: first colour layer: adding shadows :
and some colour...March30, 2013. Why is the underground coloured? Because the colour will shimmer through all other colours added later and thus link all colours together into a common "colour room". Otherwise the painting would not be coloured, but gaudy.
March 31: ...summertime! it´s ten o´clock although it´s only nine o´clock...have to google the word "summer". outside grey sky black and white, much white from snow that fell overnight and covers everything bushes, fences, houses, trees, gardens street lanes, even the asphalt is white and snow keeps falling perpetually, fine snow, like powdered sugar.
buh! says the artist.
Karin´s painting studio...
