I prefer thinking that you just cannot stand "artists" who are not even able to maintain their tools properly...as a matter of fact, since this class I am taking a much better care of my brushes , you taught me this, amongst other things.PA74https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342796008081342481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-23214558563398684742011-04-02T19:11:13.675-07:002011-04-02T19:11:13.675-07:00now you know how i feel ;^)now you know how i feel ;^)Lynne Rutterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861049506323014982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-51840610284532758002011-04-02T15:58:17.270-07:002011-04-02T15:58:17.270-07:00Yes Cleta, I was looking for the crackle effect. I...Yes Cleta, I was looking for the crackle effect. I usually put too thick coats of gesso, I do the painting and the next day I push at the back of the canvas and get the crakles , thin or very visible depending on the thickness of the gesso.<br />Thank you once again for your compliments but compared to Veronese I am a student...:-)if he were still alive I would be honored to be allowed to clean up his brushes.PA74https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342796008081342481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-83211003962239943712011-04-02T12:20:02.533-07:002011-04-02T12:20:02.533-07:00I like the full size AND the individual portraits....I like the full size AND the individual portraits. Superb. I actually prefer your version to that of Veronese...his people were a bit too...intense. But, then you know I am a huge fan of you and your work, Pascal.<br /><br />Okay - on the technical side....in the last painting, "water into wine", you've done this with casein on canvas gessoed with rabbit skin glue gesso? Has it first been attached to a wood panel? If not, were you looking for a "crackle" effect? I am curious because I've always heard that you can't use rabbit skin glue gesso on canvas - only on rigid substrates. Which I thought was a bummer because I would prefer to always work on rabbit skin gesso rather than acrylic. <br /><br />And the last painting (the detail) is my favorite. <br /><br />CletaCletanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-76120628387142694842011-04-01T23:30:51.146-07:002011-04-01T23:30:51.146-07:00it's really nice- like hearing a bit of each c...it's really nice- like hearing a bit of each conversation at the party.Lynne Rutterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03861049506323014982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-41573067321132377862011-04-01T23:14:05.565-07:002011-04-01T23:14:05.565-07:00Thank you very much...I also prefer it in bits and...Thank you very much...I also prefer it in bits and pieces :-)PA74https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342796008081342481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7884060296380232965.post-70169042146258536912011-04-01T17:34:40.670-07:002011-04-01T17:34:40.670-07:00So beautiful.
