I painted this face with traditional techniques. This is a completely imaginary face. Paint a face invented the painting makes it more personal. This is a very important exercise in style. the result will not be realistic but this can be an advantage.
Stages:
- I drew with charcoal and black acrylic.
- then I started to paint with one color: ocher.
- Finally I used red clay.
- the background is a mixture of red, ocher and blue clear.
I have defined the areas to be coated with dashed charcoal .
I prefer the hatch to the smooth shaded. It's much more expressive.
I never thought that painting should be neat and tidy.
I'm always looking for the natural and spontaneous effect.
I never paint the background with a completely detached color.
I make clearer mixtures or darker colors that I used for the figure.
The final image appears hit from the side by light
for this reason I have called this painting Light-man
