Sharon's blog: Vic's painting

Posted on Dec 9, 2011 2:13 PM

I'm painting a Christmas gift for Vic. Here are the steps I'm taking. It's acrylic on canvas, about 20" x 24".

The drawing was made in pencil, just a sketchy outline so I could paint the background first. I placed a layer of dark blackish green for the background area and after it dried I went back into it and added the suggestion of daylily foliage. No details, just the suggestion of foliage.

And so, about 25 layers of paint later, Merry Christmas, Vic!
