20x20" oil on canvas
Spirit Gallery, Burlingame, CA
I just finished hanging the show at the Spirit Gallery in Burlingame, the reception is this Sunday. It's been a busy couple of weeks! There's also another show coming up in a few weeks at the Studio Gallery. It's an urban plein air event called "94109". All paintings must be done in one week and the subject matter must be within the 94109 zip code. I'll post more details closer to the event.
I've had some emails asking about my painting process when doing larger pieces so I figured I'd post a few photos below.
First I toned the canvas with a thin wash of burnt sienna and sketched out the buildings.
Next I scrubbed in some approximate colors.
Here I started applying thicker paint with more accurate colors. I continued making adjustments until I arrived at the finished painting seen at the top of this post.
