Currently putting together a duo of paintings, one based on snowboarding the other on skiing...here's a working sketch for the latter. Still in development, this is going to be a figurative piece with an expressive, semi-abstract style finish.
Really interested in placing the viewer intimately close to the action, dynamic posture, sharp contour lines and aggressive angles depicting speed and an explosion of energy. Will be contrasting dark shadows against light areas, smooth textures against rough and the application of thick impasto layers of acrylic/enamel next to more evenly bodied mixtures of acrylic/spraypaint. Very much interested in mixed media at the moment. Has to have maximum movement and good rhythm within the composition.
Will post the working sketch for the snowboarder next.
