CVP panels - wip

 


I am still on CVP course and working on panels. This is a distorted perspective, as the panels are square ;) Lots of challenge in the process, but I think I am getting this one together.

Hyænehund / African Wild dog - WIP






Hyænehund WIP. Jeg arbejder i akryl på lærred, og tænker på en lille serie: Wild canine portraits. Her et par steps. Først en okay tegning, så et foto fra de grimme stadier og nu begynder det igen at ligne noget. En del timer endnu.

............................................

African wild dog wip. I work in acrylic on canvas, and think of doing a small serie: Wild canine portraits. Here a couple of steps. First an okay drawing, the a pic of the ugly stages and now it begins to look like something. Still hours to finish.

Meet 4 Misses

Meet 4 Misses: Here's my new Misses: Miss Rose. She is in good company with Miss Violet, Miss Lollipop and Miss Flora. 
These females are a bit out of the ordinary with bold colors and really large hairstyles. The 3 of the Misses are going on exhibition now (Miss Lollipop found a new home at last exhibition ). The paintings are 60x60 cm, acrylic and for sale  Lenes website




Miss Rose - wip




Jeg er igang med en ny Misses, dette er Miss Rose. Jeg arbejder på at få hende færdig til en udstilling, så jeg igen har 3 Misses at vise frem sammen 
I am working on a new Misses, this is Miss Rose. I want to have the painting finished for an exhibition, so that I once again have 3 Misses to show together 

Zebra no 3 - wip

My process with Zebra no. 3 in the Perfect Stripes serie. A very red background to spice things up and then going for the dark stripes.






Bongo antelope finished


Here are my finished painting of Bongo Antelope in the series Perfect Stripes.

The bongo is not as well known as the other animals in the serie, but I find it a very beautiful one.

My next project will be yet another in the wildlife serie, a zebra actually no. 3 in this serie.

Bongo - wip




Bongo Antelope still in progress. A closeup of the ear, and a shot of me in my small, packed studio. I will have this painting finished in a couple of days, I believe.

Bongo - wip




Showing some close-ups here. My colors are Ultramarine Blue, Burnt Sienna, Cadium Orange, Umber and some White.
Very messy stages for the first 2 pics. Getting tighter in the last pic.

Bongo - wip






Progress on the Bongo painting. I paint shadows with Burnt Umber first. Many layers, texture and details to come.


Miss Lollipop


Miss Lollipop er nu færdig. Den 3. i Misses (Frøkener) serien. Jeg nyder den meget frie proces i tegning og maleri.
Serien er med originale, finurlige damer, kraftige farver og fantastisk hårstil. Med deres bevidst let forvrængede udseende, synes jeg de har charme.
Jeg starter emd skitser fra fantasien og forstørrer til lærred. De males på 60c60 cm. Malet med akryl.
Der vil komme flere i serien, men jeg må forlade dem en stund, da andre malerier står i kø. Her de 3 første: Miss Flora, Miss Violet og Miss Lollipop.


Miss Lollipop is now finished - the 3. in the Misses serie. I enjoy the very free process of drawing and then painting these girlies.
The serie shows original, whimsical ladies, in bold colors and with fab hairstyles. With their intentionally distorted apperance, they have charm, I think.
I start with sketches from imagination, and enlarge these onto the canvas. These are 60x60 cm. Painted in acrylic.
More to come, but I have to leave them for a while as other paintings are in line.
Here the first 3 together: Miss Flora, Miss Violet and Miss Lollipop





Miss Lollipop - wip


Brushes playing again. A new female in my "Misses" serie, Miss Lollipop is coming to life. I was a bit uncertain about the colorscheme, but my daughter went by my workplace, and said she adore the colors ☺️ I'll keep them.

Miss Violet finished


Miss Violet is the second female in the serie: Misses.

The serie shows original, excentric ladies, in bold colors and with fab hairstyles. I have fun with these imaginary personalities. With their intentionally distorted apperance, they have charm, I think.

I start with sketches from imagination, and enlarge these onto the canvas. These are 60x60 cm. Painted in acrylic.


Miss Violet er nr 2 kvinde i serien Misses.
Serien viser originale, excentriske damer, i kraftige farver og med fantastiske frisurer.

Jeg har det sjovt med at male disse fantasi personligheder. Med den bevidste forvrængede fremtoning, synes jeg hun har charme.

 Jeg starter med skitser fra fantasi og overfører til lærred. 60x60 cm i akryl.

Miss Flora - renewed





Miss Flora is a painting from 2017. I liked a lot about this female painting, but I was not quite satisfied. 

Sometimes it can be difficult to pinpoint what you dislike in a painting - especially in your own work, as it is closer to your heart. But it is better to stand back, and really try to analyze what bothers you, than showcase an artwork you are not happy with. 

Now 2 years after, where Miss Flora has resided among other paintings in my studio, I have renewed the painting. I liked her face, hair and sensual clothing. So it had to be the background. Then I had to figure out what to do with that.

I decided for a much more dark colorscheme, with more complimentary colors. And a pattern at the bottom.
 
In my goal of painting a serie of exciting personalities, a bit out of the ordinary and with extreme hairstyles, I am now happy with this first lady. Miss Flora.

I still need a name for the serie, but painting more of these women, I think it will appear.

Tiger tiger


Oh my tiger - he is now finished, and looking at you from his canvas. We've been through wrestling to sheer flow-time together. He is my 4. painting in the Perfect Stripes serie. He will be exhibited first time in september and I will not see him in 4 month then - and who knows, if he leaves forever ? I'll enjoy him for now.
