It wasn't long after taking Misty Mawn's class that I needed to jump into another online art class. Fortunately I found Kate Thompson's Fractured Angelics.
I've always loved the Michaelangelo, Raphael and DaVinci's painting of angels. Besides in this course I'm also using the modeling paste I bought for Michael DeMeng's class to cover the wood panels. After the first coat of modeling paste (or next time I might buy the joint compound instead) dried, collage papers and stamping can be applied. Kate's videos are well done and I watch them repeatedly. I hadn't painted with re-inkers before!
This is the first angel, I used a painting by Abbott Henderson Thayer for a reference. I'm just starting to use Pinterest and found so many beautiful paintings.
This was done on a 12 x 12 panel I already had. When I got the 16 x 16 I added more and more.
Here's the sketch for the last angel using "Psyche" by Nikolas Gyzis for reference and a cherub by Francois Boucher.
I don't know why I just didn't stay with the photo, the profile gave me enough trouble. I'd lose the hair and flowers, and definitely I need to sketch more. Hoping to go see the Pre-Raphaelites exhibit in NY at the Met soon.
