Verdaccio

My latest painting is a portrait of the Madonna, as Our Lady of Guadalupe, in the old masters technique of Verdaccio. I am happy to see Michael George here at Strokes. He and two others walked me through the entire process and his advice was invaluable. He is a gifted artist and a welcome addition to Stroke of Genius.

The cherubs are from Velasquez and Titian. The painting will now be set aside to dry, be fixed with Damar and then the glazes will begin.

The model is my daughter-in-law, whom I draped and lit with my new studio lighting based upon Karin Wells lighting setup, which she so generously shares with all of us on her website.
