Hello all
Hello all, new member here. I'm Louis (silent s) Bispo, or L. Lawrence. I'm an art student of some years, looking to take things to the next level - if only to pay for some of my art supplies! I make some of my own pigments and paints, which occasionally makes things cheaper, but usually more expensive as I experiment. I'm fascinated by traditional art materials and techniques. I like doing portraits, and lately I've become interested in Southwest and Western art. I work in oils, pen & ink, sometimes pastels.
I'm looking forward to participating in these forums, there are so many amazing artists here! Here are a few of my oil paintings to introduce myself. The first and last are 12X12, painted this year from photos I took of our awesome model van. The other two are a bit older, from life; the burnt umber pickout is 12X16, the guy with the black shirt 11X14 in Zorn palette. Thanks for looking!
