Original artwork description:
Two sources were used for this painting, the first was observing swimmers at the Cheltenham Lido UK, the second was a young woman watching a street entertainer in Trafalgar sq.
I apply the acrylic paint in successive washes to achieve a soft structure and then overpaint some areas with a more opaque pigment. I use artists hogs hair brushes to apply and manipulate the paint with large 2" brushes to spread the washes. The work is painted on a Superior Rolled Canvas board as I like the rigidity and fine surface.
Finished with one coat of Winsor & Newton Satin UV varnish and a frame of at least 55mm is recommended.
Materials used:
acrylic on rolled canvas board
