My Process for figure paintings
Before I begin any figure painting, I like to get to know the model that I’m working with. The biggest factor for my painting is the energy that the individual I’m working on projects. The colors are Dependent on the personality of the woman I am painting. This is what makes each painting unique.
I shoot pictures of my models only after I get to know them and can truly feel the color of their soul. I strive to capture the energy that the model exudes and convey it in my art.
After the photo shoot the model and I both pick the picture that I will work off of. From there I being in layers. It takes two months to fully complete a figure painting.
