A new time lapse painting of an Oak tree, storm clouds and a deep red sky. This was completed with acrylics, and measures 24 X 36. I have better lighting with this video, and plan to expand on the type of videos I do in the future. I will begin doing a instructional video every Monday, starting soon. Thanks for watching.

Speed Painting – Horse portrait in pastel (Cara)

admin — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 07:17:20 +0000

A time lapse film of my painting of Cara, a beautiful black mare. I made it using pastels and pastel pencils (all brands) on sanded paper (Fisher 400). This was a commission for Cara’s owner, and the painting is about 16×12″. I hope you enjoy watching. To answer the FAQs that I usually get: This painting took about 10 hours work. I took my own photos of Cara to use as references. I don’t use water or any fluids. The background is in soft pastel sticks, the ‘brush’ looking thing I use on it at the start is a silicon ‘colour shaper’ tool: it blends the colours. The horse is underpainted with Derwent (firm) pastel sticks and then worked up with pastel pencils. The stick you can see some of the time is a Mahl stick, as used by signwriters. It’s just to lean my hand on without smudging the work. I do sell my work and take portrait commissions in the UK (it’s my living, so please don’t ask for freebies!), more about that on my website for anyone interested. I don’t do any teaching or tuition, I just make these videos from time to time because people seem to enjoy watching the process. Hope you do too… happy viewing!

Desconocido pero bueno, Obras espectaculares.
Frank Weston Benson was born in Salem, Massachusetts on March 24, 1862. At age sixteen, Benson decided he wanted to become an artist and went to study at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. For his twenty first birthday Benson received a ticket to Paris from his parents so he could enroll at the l’Académie Julian. It was here in Paris, the heart of artistic Europe, that Benson did fall in love with Impressionism. In 1888, just after his return to America, Benson married his childhood friend Ellie Pierson.
