So I painted last night. As I said, a Beardsley repro, which I am very pleased with, in the main because it is so androgynous. I will call it Judith. Oh, man, I forgot how bloody fun minimal knifework was. Particularly when vibrating Stockholm Syndrome by Muse through my auditory canals.
Anyhow, I think I'm going to experiment with glazing with oils. I know it's the thing to do with acrylics, but what about achieving a watercolour effect with oil? I mean...I did this groovesome almost-Asian thingie for the drapery on this piece, and I bloody love how it looks. Black outline, olive green, with a heavy thinning with a copal medium. Anyhow. Nuff of that. I think I'm going to do a little series of simple art nouveau print-style paintings. Hang on to your nads, Mucha, you're next!
