A Plethora of Patina Paintings

January 20, 2017
   Working on patina paintings this morning. This is an exercise of letting the paint go where it wants to go, without judgement or ambition. Okay, maybe there is a little ambition, especially if I see something shaping up, but mostly it's free form. I'm looking for happy accidents Got a few.

Daily Whip Out: "Patina #1"



Daily Whip Out: "Patina #2"



Daily Whip Out: "Patina #3"



Daily Whip Out: "Patina #4"



Daily Whip Out: "Patina #5"



Daily Whip Out: "Patina #6"

Or, should I turn it upside down?


Daily Whip Out: "Patina #6 flipped"

Do I add a figure to these? Do I let them stand alone? Ah, that is another story.

  1. I remember doing these for my Fundamentals class at the American Academy of art. They did have us sketch over some of them later.
