Geometric fun is about to start!!!

Working in Module and Pattern
Geometric inspiration


This week we are starting a new work inspired in geometric shapes. We start by creating different geometric modules, and them rotating them in different patterns.After that we just choose our favorite ones and create a new canvas inspired in our work. It's fun!!!

Examples of geometric inspired patterns:











And now a mixture of geometric and free expression

Back to work!!!

After the summer all I want to do it's to get my warm colours and get my hands on the paint...
In a working process ... here it's the primary colours for my new lady on black

It's just the beginning of a long work, first the study, then the shapes in the canvas... 




The primary study of the shadow and the light




The lady needs to dry her shadows... so that we can add the light




I just get to the second part of shadow and light 

(she looks like a Walking dead character right?)

work place this days

Before the color attack



After the color attack for R. big art


Meet the new stars: Acrylic color and brushes!

Tools to paint

This week we are looking closer to brushes... 

The best ones are those with natural fur... like the Marta, they can handle high humidity, but they are expensive...
The other natural brushes are made with ear ox fur and squirrel tail! And in this class we don't use any of those... lets keep it animal friendly!
By the way this is a Marta right here:

...The ear of the ox...


...and the little Squirrel...


Different types of brushes

To our work we need tree types of brushes:

The round


The flat

The Almond

Composition of the Brushe


Be careful to not touch the fur or the gage during your work... and try not to let the paint go in the gage or cable either... keep your work clean

To clean in the end of the work


Water and soap is the best!  Just try small circles in your palm until the bubbles are clean!

Enjoy!
