Here is a painting I'm about half way done with intended for my mom's workshop at the Laguna Playhouse. The composition is based on an old engraving, and unfortunately I couldn't find any information on who originally made it. It's my second time ever working on an unprimed canvas. The process was a lot slower because the paint gets soaked up by the canvas. You really have to commit to every stroke and use a lot of paint. I don't think i'll work on an unprimed surface ever again. It was kind of like painting with wrist weights on.
