Large Lascaux painting, by PurpleCathy

My obsession with "Lascaux" continues, I just love painting and drawing the animals from the famous cave. Since I visited it last year, (well Lascaux II) it has continued to inspire my art making. In the photo above, this is the start of the painting, mapping out colours and shapes. It is 60 x 80cm, and was painted using acrylic and two different mediums, gloss gel and resin sand. The base is MDF with pine boxes attached.
