2015 acrylic on paper, 12″x8″

This is a shading & lighting practice sketch for some upcoming larger scale works. The location is my work/live studio warehouse in Bushwick. Recently I’ve been growing pretty tired of fast-drying acrylics. Sure they’re easy to clean up, and there aren’t any toxic fumes to inhale, but what fun is that? Next steps for my realistic work will be oil.
