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 the two paintings in cold wax and oil on panels 60 x 40 cm
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’
where are we from and where are we going
just colour, pigment, wax on wood, like us just matter
how do they develop, where do they come from
and me
where to now?
the life and direction of my paintings is fascinating me just now, there’s a ‘zone’ sometimes when I’m making them when I’m not sure whether any decisions are being made, or if they have a life or destination of their own
