Artwork Description

A Study of St. Cecilia


0.0 x 0.0


This is one of my studies of the old master, Guido Reni,and his painting of Saint Cecilia. I found that learning how to glaze colors with oil was imperative in order to capture the technique of the old masters. I used a three part mixture of Sun dried Linseed Oil, Turpentine and Damar Varnish to the desired color of oil paint. This allowed me to give that transparent nature while building and forming the shadows and mid-tones.
