Sometimes a painting just falls in place as you paint it. For every ten or so paintings, one comes along that paints itself. Carly was one of those.
I wonder if the accumulation of experience in painting the first 10, wizzes out the end of you brush . Or is it that the artist is relaxed and doesn't care so much. With Carly I told myself I would paint him as I wanted and didn't care if the customer liked it.
In this painting the composition was a combination of two photos I took. The colours where achieved with colour choice, ultramarine blue, phalo green, cad red , a bit of yellow and white. It was painted on a mid-grey toned canvas.
Hope you like it too.
