Offgridlife Claymation Oil Transfer Drawings
It's been years since I did anything in oil and taken too long for me to get started on the Offgridlife Claymation series of oil transfer drawings.
Based on @offgridlife AI videos of claymation figures doing FREE ART FREES ART. I found some paintings on plywood Shelley did around 2008 in Billy's studio, used the backs as boards for each colour, apart from red, for which I used a sheet of paper, and drew out the following ten or so pictures. It's a unique, distinctive and painterly way of making oil transfer drawings that I'm very pleased with myself for inventing.
All yesterday's were traces of the same drawing. I have about eight more to do and intend to make at least twenty of each. If I can clear enough space in my home studio I'll get some more done this week. Otherwise, the next ones will have to wait till next Monday.
A lot of these will be given out at The Camden Market Free Art Man once glued to cardboard and Advertismed. Hopefully many more will be sold online.
They're all dry now, despite being done in oil paint only yesterday. An oil painting can take weeks to dry, and a century to fully dry. Due to the method used, these don't only dry almost as quickly as acrylic paint but also don't become sticky for a couple of days. Maybe years down the line the oil will turn the unprimed paper yellow. The first ones I did over a decade ago still look fine.
