The Ringmaster


This is "Kirby" 16 x 20. He is kind of the ringmaster clown. I really liked the way that my previous clown Checkers (see previous post) turned out, using the same yellows for the clown and the background, so my goal was to achieve the same harmony with reds. This piece is also painted exclusively with a large synthetic bright for a brush (I call it my shovel) which I used to scoop up BIG brush loads of paint. I wanted to keep this clown a bit looser and spontaneous......just work fast with lots of paint.....and POW! ......there it is.
