The Prey

I haven't felt very well this week... but today I managed to paint this little painting. 

Alla Prima oil on canvas, 42x33cm, like 4 hours work. It was really dark and I think I will continue with the museum next week. Need to rest my brain and my eyes. The museum is also stressful because of all the people there.

My last Figure Pose

This was the last figure pose I did at Atelier Stockholm. I did this I think during April. I am not very happy with it so maybe that's why I didnt want to post it that much but... it is good to see what i have been studying. it was done in less than 4 weeks. Monday, wednesday and thursday i worked on it for like 3 hours. Not sure how big it is. Maybe like 80x65cm.


Eagle

I did this one in two sessions at the museum last week. I got it finally today and retouched varnish it. It is 130x80cm. 

In july i will have a personal exhibition with the animals done at the museum. Hopefully it will be a succes.

Tove

Today I Painted my friend Tove. I did it while we had the open house at Atelier Stockholm. Like 2 hours work.
I also took a photo of the first painting I did, 8 months ago, of the same model. So you can see the big difference in technique style and well... I got better easily said.

Need to rest now since my head hurts. There where a lot of people, mostly kids, at the museum today.

Sketching....

Sketching improves your art a lot... I draw from photos and teach myself about puting time and thinking in what i do! It helps me get faster... faster in the way that i see shapes and i understand the objects at a faster rate.

Museum day 5

This one was a pretty hard one to paint though it looks so simple... why? Well because i did not have a good position and i always moved around my subject instead of having just one angle! I wish to put more time into my paintings! I will also, maybe, get this chance to go to the deposit of the museum and paint more than just birds ( the mammals that they are showing, not so many to choose from )

Anyways: Done at Nature Museum Stockholm/ Sweden almost 7 hours alla prima oil on canvas. 
Specie name : Eurasian Hobby/ Lärkfalk
