This week, I do a goat painting demonstration in response to a viewer request. The materials I use are: WHSmith Mixed media paper (A3) Synthetic brushes: half in flat and a small round brush. Atelier interactive acrylics: cadmium red, cadmium yellow, ultramarine blue, titanium white, burnt umber. Water spray bottle I also use the website wheeldecide.com to create a wheel of fortune and use it to decide which colour to use next throughout the video. This results in a slightly different look for this painting compared to my normal style, I really enjoyed using this technique to do a fresh style. The finished painting is called 'Content with the view' - gestural impressionist painting of a white goat with horns standing in a field, with yellow hills in the background, against a blue sky looking off into the distance. Inspired by a goat in Somerset, England. This picture was created with interactive acrylic paint on mixed media paper and I actually used a wheel of fortune to select colours and the order I used them for the first two thirds of this painting. This resulted in subtly different colour combinations compared to my usual style. You can see the hi-res version of the painting here: click on the image to zoom in on a particular section.
