Dancer - Now and Later

This how my dancer is now. I am more or less happy with the background and composition, but the position and expression of the head does not satisfy me.

I played around in photoshop on the photograph of my painting to see what I wanted to change.


The painting as it is now:

Detail of head now:

 

And how I am thinking of changing it:

head slightly more tilted forward and eyes looking down a bit more.

Cinema painting re-photographed

As someone is probably getting this as a birthday present, I re-photographed this painting from 2007. I had changed the sky since posting on my web site and I wanted her to validate the change. The colors are much truer to the original.
 

Acrylic on canvas 65 x 50 cm.

Waiting Moment

A painting I had put aside some months ago, not sure if I wanted to call it finished. I took a good look at it today, and it suits me fine. So it's finished.

To Sleep

This one is finished now. I should oil it down and re-photograph to deepen the darks and then varnish.

Two Worlds - proper photograph

I took a new photograph by the rules - two flood flashes at 45° - of my Two Worlds painting.
The colors are more true to the original.

Three men at the market - in process

Working on this one now, still a way to go. I like how its turning out, its beginning to get more tactile.
