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.

March 5 morning.  Small oil paint on marine ply wood. At Lady Martins Beach. I use small old brushes that are almost stumps as I don't want to get too caught up in detail. I want to abstract the subject more and want to develop it into a series.

Afternoon at Strickland House. Did this water colour in a few minutes during lunch.

This one was inspired by us making rainbow cup cakes and decorating them with lots of sprinkles...This one was made with a box, a paper paddy, acrylic paint and aquarelle crayons.

I know this one is a bit late, but it has a few layers on it's surface. It wasn't working underneath, so it had a make over! The images of Frida Kahlo, are made from photocopies and gel medium. I've been reading a lot about her lately...

"Yesterday, Marea and I were below Strickland House, Vaucluse again. Here is a quick oil sketch on gesso marine ply, it's 15x35 cm. I put the paint on roughly then wipe it back as I want the light in the underground gesso to come through. Although my work is usually based on what I see, what I'm really interested in is light and space."
