Bright Idea, Alice Cook, 2014, Oil |
I recently completed this oil painting. It is a take on Saint John's revelation from God. Here the clouds part to impart a revelation to Saint John, hence the title "Bright Idea." I started this painting a few years ago in a more realistic style, but never finished it. So taking it up again, I revamped it into a different representational style. The shading or modeling is done by strips of light, medium and dark colors put side by side without blending them together. This non-blending technique produced interesting results and was fun to paint. Enjoy!
