G asleep. After Francis Bacon’s Man in Blue Series. Just before starting this painting the class were talking about Francis Bacon. I was talking about how much I admired his Man in blue series. The feeling of these works seems to have crept into my painting. The model ‘G’ always has such presence, as always the painting is influenced by the sitter.
Francis Bacon: Man in Blue
Two studies from earlier in the evening. The first with the brush held at arms length, the second made with my right (wrong) hand.
A painting made on crinkled paper.

Oh these are stunning! The blue really stands out against the skin tones and the figure speech, brush strokes. Love it!! I have yet to venture in painting people rather than sketching out my life drawings. Great work!
Painting has a lot more scope, as long as you don’t keep mixing colours and dive straight in!
which is exactly what i do so i’ll just take a seat and internally die haha
