another day working on these two canvases and one wooden panel
as much turning round and looking as actual painting
small progress, more yellow, deeper and more scratches, softer and more blurred around the edges
Tag Archives: Abstract art
and a panel
back to canvas
Back in the studio briefly, had to lay down some colour
Working on two canvases 80cm square
Started with oil bar, then a very liquid oil mixed in a jar with Malmittel quick drying medium
Used a roller to spread about, turning the canvas round frequently
Will work on them again when tacky still, maybe later today or tomorrow
details from where from and where to now
waxworks up close
I don’t have great skills with photography, and I’m not a master of the appropriate technology, however here is a mixture of edited photos of whole paintings with detailed closeups, in the seemingly random order that my Samsung tablet chooses
These are works by Liz Doyle (that’s for the search engine!) on wooden panels in oil and cold wax medium
The works shown here are ‘evening sky’, ‘territories’ ‘straits’and ‘4 leaves’
evening sky
6 new works with wax
where from and where to now
2 panels 40 x 60 cm
straits and absorbing
2 panels 40 cm square
4 leaves and territories
2 panels 50cm square
Liz Doyle is building a new collection of abstract works in oils and cold wax medium on wooden panels
The panels are the highest quality from Milliken Bros
The wax is Gamblin wax from T Lawrence in the UK imported from USA
The oils are best quality with proven lightfastness, mostly from Gerstaeker in Germany
Liz also uses Sennelier oilbars
Liz is working on themes to do with land, territory, migration, erosion and the environment. The layers of wax and oil are built up with a roller and palette knife. The layers are drawn on and scraped through with a knife revealing hidden colours and adding texture. The wiggly lines evoke ancient migration routes and territorial boundary changes. Liz’s inspiration comes from her passion for her rugged home landscape in Donegal, Ireland and her extensive travels, most recently in the Himalayas in Nepal, in Italy and Portugal.
Liz Doyle is looking for galleries in Ireland, and any city galleries in Europe or USA who would like to be the first to show these new works
