Painting Texture




It is always difficult to represent texture in oil, especially when painting ala prima. This study is composed of objects with distinct textures. Trying to make the painted object "feel" like its real life counterpart is the challenge. Having to simultaneously paint leather, faux fur, metal clips and a painted wooden wall forces the artist to constantly change not only the paint but the handling of the brush.
