portrait of Monet (2008)
Description:
In 2008 I started painting in acrylics. I used to paint in oils, but for me they took too long to dry and acrylics are quick drying and suited my tache style of painting thus causing no muddying of the colours. My favourite mentor is Claude Monet and I only had a few acrylic paints and this canvas spare (not an ideal size for a portrait) and off I went. I prefer to do portraits using primary colours and lots of titanium white held together by vigorous brushstrokes. The tache style of painting is one brushstroke of pure colour over or next to another.
