Artists block help trick with Photoshop

Thursday, February 19, 2009

I’ve been having a bit of “artists block” lately, been trying out different techniques, new paints, different palettes, painting smaller and larger formats all seems to help, but when I get really stuck I’ll take a photo of the painting I’m working on, load into Photoshop, to quickly add layers and try out different imagery This seems to help my workflow and gets me back on track quickly. Here is the painting before I work in layers in Photoshop.

One hour daily painting habit

Tuesday, February 10, 2009

image

Been trying to paint one small painting everyday, limiting myself to one hour to finish. Here are three I did from photos I shot at my Brother in laws (Brad Martin) Golden Gloves fight. It was at the PAL in Fall River Ma, this is the most amazing place to watch a fight, it is right out of a movie set! Finished in about an hour, working fast seems to go well with boxing imagery!

I Managed to take photos before and after I surfed, It doesn’t look cold in the photos but my hands froze while photographing. I have more on my Flickr page http://flickr.com/photos/gonville/
