Original artwork description:

Woman in a leotard about to do an aerobic exercise, part of a series of paintings of women at exercise classes. The paintings are the result of individual observation and the collective goodwill (or exhaustive indifference) of the women involved.

I apply the acrylic in successive washes to achieve a soft structure and then overpaint most areas with a more opaque use of the pigments. I use artists hogs hair brushes to apply and manipulate the paint with large 2" brushes to spread the washes. The work is painted on a Superior Rolled Canvas board as I like the rigidity and fine surface, plus the longevity and resistance to damage has a proven record.

Materials used:

acrylic paint
