A few years ago I worked on an advertising campaign for a New Jersey law firm. All of the images were based on nursery rhymes and children's book imagery. The top image that you see here (in blue pencil) was one of my sketches for the campaign. The agency chose a different sketch of mine to be completed and subsequently go to print. I finished the job with the client and Ad agency happy...but I always liked this sketch better, so I decided to paint this image as an in-class demonstration for one of my classes at RIT. It shows one of the many ways that I use oil paint.
The center image shows a monochromatic underpainting, and once that is dry, I glaze transparent and semi-opaque color on top.
