I’ve been having fun re-working old paintings,
mainly focussing on varying paint application.
Here’s one I’m working on.
20 x 16 oil painted over this oldie from 2013!
(Too many details! Too many sharp edges!
Large shapes too flat!
As you can see, I deleted many of the features
on the house and simplified the shapes.
Using a palette knife, squeegee, and scrapers
I worked to make interiors of the shapes more interesting
and the exteriors less severe and defined.
Here is another one.
14 x 14 oil on a panel re-worked over this one:
Again, I’m focussing on softening the edges
and using varying paint applications
to add a little more interest.
The possibilities for applying paint
are endless!
