I don’t know if I’ll ever use a process quite this structured again, but the series of new paintings is coming along.

My last Instagram reel showed the original still life and the tracing paper drawings that were made from every angle, then layered to finalize 10 compositions.

Next, using transfer paper to get the drawings onto the substrate, and painting in the first “passages” of light and dark across the page before starting to play.

You can see a sneak peek of one of the finished pieces in the first frames of the newest reel HERE or by aiming your phone camera at this QR code.

The series of 10 turned into 5 pairs that (I think) may be finished. I’m letting them settle a little bit before I call them resolved and show you.
