Description
My Mandolin is the second of a series of three string instruments I am painting. All three will be painted with fine acrylics on 24 x 12 inch gallery wrap canvas with edges painted.
For artists that may be interested in shop talk:
The little mandolin turned out to be an interesting challenge as it has many components to deal with each having unique surfaces or shapes. The palette requirements were a tidbit of this and that, but mainly: white, black, raw umber, raw sienna, burnt sienna, burnt umber, red, cerulean blue, phthalo blue, naples yellow, and acro gold. To get the light amber for body I used washes several times using more or less for the lighter and darker areas.
This painting reminds me of my younger days when I played the guitar and mandolin. The painting is located in Van Vleck, Texas, USA.
I hope you have enjoyed the post and will refer me to your family and friends.
