Burn

With a couple of sketches from my life drawing class as reference, I put together this painting giving myself the latitude to have fun and do whatever came to mind.

Using a mixture of walnut oil and demar varnish mixed into the oil paints, I loosely painted the sketches onto the canvas. After the painting was complete I blotted the whole painting with crumpled up plastic wrap and sketch paper.

The title of this painting is inspired by the Missy Higgins cover of a Ray LaMontagne song called Burn.
