June 26, 2003 at 8:21 pm #1011765I love watching your growth in skin tones. I really admire how you start out in dark tonal use, then minimise it later on in the painting.
The painting really speaks to me already and I get such a high force of admiration when i gaze at it.
I like the hand as it is- great use of tone there!
The composition itself is very thoughtful and tunneling her thoughts through a different channel is bringing her spirit to life.
Great work!June 26, 2003 at 9:48 pm #1011732I am enjoying watching this one unfold!
A total “out of body” experience!
Keep up the great work!

Can’t wait to see the finished product!!!!
June 27, 2003 at 7:31 pm #1011742Hi, thank for all your kind replies
ciarrai, thanks for your reply, the ‘grisaya’ method is been used for centuries, originally done with black & white to obtain several gray tones (gray = gris in spanish that’s the origin of the word gris-aya) but now many painters use a warm color for lights instead of white and a cold color for shadows instead of black, the name still remains…
Rosic, thanks for looking and commenting, that’s the idea, to show an out of body experience, from a point of view
Crystal Owl, thanks for looking and commenting, do I travel? I used to practice this kind of travels after studying something about it, that was years ago, interesting things I experienced… do you travel?
Mac, thanks for your comments, I wasn’t very sure about how this one could turn out with the two figures so I worked with a previous sketch, I felt comfortable with the result even before finished, so I decided to get in to the painting inmediately…
ginatec, gracias por tus comentarios y observar el desarrollo de esta pintura
duranel, I’m glad to be helpfull, thanks for your comments
There I go…
First coat finished, I feel comfortable on some parts, not so on others, but that’s the way it goes always… Finally, the painting is about to start…

June 27, 2003 at 8:57 pm #1011720You have great talent and I hope a great future senior
June 30, 2003 at 11:52 pm #1011728This painting is shaping up great so far– I’ll be keeping my eye on it as well. After my recent experience painting flesh for the first time I’m especially interested in watching your process for the fleshtones of the model unfold. I work in acrylics, but the basic idea of transparent layers is pretty much the same I’m thinking (?).
I admire you for having the patience to work in layers where each one must dry before the next…sometimes it is hard for me to control my painting process and not rush things when I see things I want to fix, or to rush to get things to a highly developed stage where it looks ‘right’– I imagine it takes a good amount of patience to work one layer at a time and not have everything really come together until the end. A fascinating process, might motivate me to give oil paint at some point.
Looking forward to the next update.
Aaron.
July 1, 2003 at 12:29 am #1011734Looking very nice so far! It reminds me of an out-of-body experience I once had while napping!

scandia3815, thamnks for looking and commenting…
My little experience with oils and acrylics working transparent layers tells me there’s no much difference on the process except than acrylics dry a lot faster…
About the fleshtones, using a previous lay with greens is a tool, but I’m not attached to use it, the first goal of it was the placement of lights and shadows, second one to take advantage of those greens in case the next coat is a thin one and I decide to let some of those greens to be showed, it’s a tool, and I still have to decide if use it or not, some times I have used it, sometimes I have decided to go with a thicker oil coat and not to let any of those greens to come out… What I like about this one is I don’t know what’s gonna happen next :)…Laura Morena, thanks for looking and commenting
So, does it remind you of a previous experience? cool
Isn’t that some experience?Ok ciarrai, here it is your request, faster than any fast food restaurant
There I go…
I started the second coat on the backgrounds, I started playing with the sky and some abstracts dark clouds came out…
Today in the morning I worked the floor with some fast free movements, they look somehow like water I don’t know, some weird stuff :)…It seems like I can’t upload the background’s floor image, I’ll try later…
Regards…
