Cut Branches

Despite the weather, I have managed a bit of time to paint. Our internet is finally up and running. I’ve just been writing this as I go so I’m going to put the entire thing up at once.

I started this session with a glaze of Sennilier’s burnt sienna over the outside of the yellow forms and blocked in some of the elements like the “hair” and so on with Winsor Newton’s scarlet vermilion. I glazed over the “intestines” (what’s an evisceration without intestines?) with Sennelier’s alizarin crimson and added some shadows and darker passages with Sennelier’s caput mortuum. Some of the yellow objects got modeled a bit with Sennelier’s Naples yellow. I added a few highlights with it as well. The greenish “seeds” were painted in with Sennelier’s viridian and naples yellow. Some of the mid-tones are painted in with Winsor Newton’s terra rosa.
