ADEBANJI ALADE: MY ART, MY PASSION FOR SKETCHING
Josh having breakfast with BOB, 50 x 60cm, oil on linen, 2008
I have always wanted to do an ALLA PRIMA piece of Josh and just forget whether good or bad and this one I did yesterday made me glad, even though I had problems with his exact resemblance!
Its Josh having breakfast with BOB- oil on linen and sweat------no more no less!
And here is the "gutty-watty" palette

Sketches on the train in October XV
Got my sketchbook today and a new tombow marker for the tones, but yet to use it. I still used the offcuts today.
I really got an intimate study of the guy with the beard......sometimes it gets that close.

Painting of Dory (Stage 4)
I was able to get another 2 hours with Dory yesterday and It was fun painting from life once again. The opportunity to mix what you see right in front of you and the way it keeps changing with the lighting, mood and sitting of the model. We had some nice discussions while painting and she never ceases to wonder how she has so many colours on her face- in my eyes.
Sketches on the train and station in October XIV
More people..............I still haven't been able to get a new sketch pad so I had these square cardboard offcuts that I got from my wife, as she always has loads she discards from her card designing
They had a different feel to paper and I think they worked quite well. Wish they had sketch books made of this kind of card.
