Painters Tip
Going from a small study to a large finished painting
Difficulties:
How do you recreate the energy that you applied freely to a smaller painting?
How do you not "generalize" what you've already recorded?
How do you keep areas of dead spaces which will become only larger and more intimidating, interesting?
How do you avoid losing interest in what you're doing?
The Advantages:
You have the opportunity to improve your vision , composition, and color.
You also have the opportunity to REVISE your vision.
You can fine-tune your skills over days, weeks and months without worrying about the light changing in two hours.
Studio painting in a larger format is a more deliberate process, more thoughtful. It is wonderful way to paint with oils. They are ideally suited for painting in stages with periods of drying in between. Slowing down to make decisions in the process will yield wonderful results. you will have the time to consider design elements which are not practical in the field alla prima. You can also enjoy the process of transparent oil glazes, which add richnes and depth.
