11:43 pm
when i was little we had these cards with flip images and they gave me the idea for my technique for oil painting it's a bit different and always surprises the viewers. the painter studio is in this house in a small village near to rona and catalonia. is a self-taught artist and this currently working on a portrait of a girl who changes into an old woman as the perspective of the few it changes. she asks friends neighbors and family to serve as models so she could dana starts with the photograph to paint from it takes him about a month to complete her work. how does he create the illusion of the transformation is not i use a special painting paste to make the relief of my footnote. his secret tool
11:44 pm
and i sing back. my neighbor gave me this he was a pastry chef and watching him work gave me the idea to use these old fashioned utensils. not. the paste has to drive for 2 days. then he cleans it up with a trial. i smoothed over all the little flaws right at the start to achieve a perfect surface to work with. i need 2 surfaces to make the 2 images. one on this side one on the other side. then he makes a sketch. i create the transformation during the painting process trying is to coordinate the lines for both images or finished the old woman will have wrinkles that the younger one doesn't. but the whole area of the cheek for instance is the same for both women.
11:45 pm
nice the oil paints at a constant angle of $45.00 degrees to the canvas. also lot from here i see one image otherwise it's the same as painting on a flat surface. you have to get used to the lines being broken and not continuous on the canvas. first i finish one image and then i go over and finish the other one . i think. a lot of. surgical danas finds inspiration at the film museum in toronto now. there he studies the optical illusions from the 1800s. i mean to those in the past these things inspired an amazed people now it's the magic the surprise of art that i like that look into some of. his words hang in
