BACK TO BASICS: A TONED GROUND - GESSOING


Starting from the Beginning - again! Friend Carol pitched in to help gesso canvases in preparation to paint - behind the scenes studio work - the part that no one sees or considers when looking at a finished painting! GESSO RECIPE: Gesso, Payne's Grey - enough color to create a toned ground. If necessary, thin with water so that coats do not leave heavy brush marks on canvas. Dry thoroughly between each coat. Mix in coffee can - enough for two or three coats to cover canvas. Seal up remainder and put in fridge to keep for next use.

SANCTUARY OF PADRE MARTINEZ - 60"x50" Work in Progress

SANCTUARY OF PADRE MARTINEZ ( Martinez Hacienda - Taos, New Mexico) - New 60"x50" Work in Progress - Yesterday completed the underpainting on the 60"x50" Sanctuary of Padre Martinez.  It is of the Rio Pueblo that runs in front of the Martinez Hacienda in Taos.  Got this view on a photo trip with my dear friends Rick Finney and Jerry Walter from Taos.  It was a lovely October morning - walked into the shadows as the river was running - almost had the feeling I was in church.  The darks and the lights in this one are tricky, but when I looked at it last night, I could almost see the finished canvas - a smile on my face! ....Stay tuned!
