This drawing is similar to yesterday’s in theme and
subject. I probably should have done it as cut-paper, only I liked the
crude-yet-subtle application of the colored pencil.
Same deal as yesterday,
wet-into-wet acrylic using leftover paint, color mixing directly on the page.
Except, this time, I started with a yellowish underpainted wash.
I really like the look of
the last 3 posted paintings; I think they would look great painted large, say
3’ x 4’, maintaining the same large strokes.
Yeow,
I just noticed: this is the 50th post in the “Daily Dick” series.
I’m just about halfway through the “Daily Dick” sketchbook. In order to avoid
repetition (and the accompanying boredom and ennui), I had to keep mixing
things up, trying new shit. Things get even more interesting from here on out.
This is done with black
acrylic paint.
It’s
based off yesterday’s colored pencil drawing. I don’t think I referred to the
original photograph; I wanted greater abstraction. I definitely succeeded; the
image is unrecognizable as a close-up of a crotch. It can only be appreciated
as an abstract image and for the sensual pleasure of the smeared paint.
