I originally tried to repaint the background and foreground of this old painting to simplify the surroundings of the main figures. I thought it would be a quick touch-up job, but I ended up with spending 5-6 hours to modify the majority of the painting with a new perspective. What a fun experience.
Live studio painting of a handsome young man Jeff.
Update.... This painting was selected to the American Impressionist Society annual exhibition at Guenzel Gallery in Fish Creek, WI , from 9/27 - 10/28/2018
This is the picture of my friend at the glassblowing workshop. It interests me because of the busy background on the wall and in the room. I try to simplify the background and put more emphasis on the 2 main characters who are working on glassblowing. It's an interesting experience for painting subject like this and I am sure will paint more like this later.
