Scraping And Sketching.

A painting in progress, mostly dark purple and black with flashes of orange and some areas of white. There are the outlines of four people: three are little more than heads in the foreground, the fourth is the main figure and is in the centre of the canvas.
Sketching the figures.

I finished scraping a layer of Dioxazine Purple (transparent) over the bulk of my nocturne with a palette knife. When it dried, I started to sketch in some figures with Unbleached Titanium (opaque). I’m using Liquitex Heavy Body acrylic paints over a recycled and heavily textured stretched canvas. Still a long way to go ….

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D
