Latest

Colour oil, grisaille oil, composition work in progress.

Oil still life, 65x70cm


I took this picture on a very cloudy day, so as a result the reds look a lot less vibrant than they really are.
J'ai pris cette photo un jour ou le temps etait couvert, alors par consequent les couleurs sont beaucoup moins eclatantes qu'elles ne devrait l'etre.

This painting got taken into the academy's "fund". They pick their favourites from all the students in the academy to keep, so I was pretty chuffed!
Cette toile a été prise par l'académie pour leur collection. Ils prennent ce qu'ils ont préféré parmis le travail des étudiants. J'étais content!
