Transfer

I combined the drawings of Robert and Alex as two brothers in my first large painting. There is really no final drawing for the full composition. I combined various sketches in photoshop and once I transfer this image, I will have to redraw it carefully and in more detail. This is my least favorite part! Next, I will seal the drawing with clear gesso in two-three coats, then sand it to perfect smoothness. Thank goodness for my electric sander, the board is 24 x 36 inches!


The transfer is made up of seven tabloid-sized pages taped together. Look at Sushi hiding under my easel! So cute.
