"The Granddaughters"


More work done to refine the faces and hands.












12"x16" oil on gessoed panel, very slick and shiny surface. I used Artisan water miseble oils with Gamblin's Neo Megilp medium. Boy, the paint sure moved around a lot and I think I probably should Not have used bristle brushes. However, it make for an interesting loose look. My first attempt at 3 figures on any size, but this small sure was a challenge making the faces very tiny. But, I sure enjoyed the experience! I may try another of the same girls but on a larger linen canvas with a little tighter look on the faces.
