Oil Paint Practice

Life drawing lesson (from life) with oils on an old pre used canvas. The pre-used canvas gave a nice thick base to work on. I had to go thick with the paint quickly to establish the new image as the old image was confusing the drawing allot at the beginning. Its a shame to lose the original image but even though I can now afford more canvas the reality is I have nowhere to store them. Better to re-use them. I might try flipping some over so I get a blank side as alternative to going over old images. Ill need to get a staple gun for that though. Overall I’m happy with how this came out. Lots of tones in there and lots of paint. Still a big focus on colours. Its actually not a bad likeness this time. Far from perfect but a happy result.
