RE: My most recent painting 'Sky'

in #artzone6 years ago

Hey @philjoannides, you painted such a beautiful sky. Painted with chalk was new to me. The chalk powder would fade away, so i very curious how you used the chalk in your drawing. And you very creative as well by using chalk. Hmm, the faces is it hidden in the sun light? I love how you painted the sunlight and the faces as cloud. It so natural and beautiful. You must be involved in drawing many years , am I right?

@oliviackl Thank you! I only used the chalk to brainstorm ideas on the canvas during the early stages, either painting over the chalk or wiping it off with a wet cloth. It's cool because you can drastically change how the painting looks in seconds and then just wipe it off if you don't think its working. Autumn Skye Morrison taught me that trick. I have been painting for about four years. :)

That's cool @philjoannides. Now I love the idea of using chalk. But if you cover your painting with chalk, won't your color fall off because chalk could easily wipe or fall out. Wow, you must be very talent in art, four years with such fantastic result.

There is no chalk in the final painting, its just for sketching on the canvas. Either the chalk gets painted over with acrylic if I like sketch or wiped away if I don't.

Ah thanks for explaining it. Silly me i thought you paint on top of chalk 😂
