Acrylic & Oil painting...part 3


I did one panel already, but I think I need to fix the background. Today I started doing the other 3 panels. First I covered the emulsion, let it dry over night. Then I apply acrylic on it, and use the cloth lightly rub, repeat again and again until I got the shade I want.

I already had breakfast last night


After extra class with Alexis Rom, my classmates and I went out for dinner at Guixot in Raval area. Oh mannn!! food is good, atmosphere is fun, price is perfect, whatelse I should say...under the heavy rain..couple glasses of vino tinto and warm foods..ahhhh

Then we went for couple more drinks at a cool bar close by. While we were busy yelling at each other, we saw Brian Rae who just gave us a conference at EINA 2 days ago before his opening exhibition at Miro Foundation. We went to greet him, he said we all should go to see exhibition. He also said the artist from Thailand 'Sakarin Krue-On' painted a wall next to him, he really inspired him.

I was back home at 3 am, and slept well...

should I start SMOKING?...


Today in my acrylic class with artist Gino Rubert. We prepared a surface for the wooden frame with some pigment, blanco de España (something like chalk powder) and acrylic medium. After apply the mixture to the surface, sometimes there might be some tiny bubbles. Gino said "Bring this outside and smoke, blow the smoke to the bubbles, they will disappear".

I think only mine, the surface still have tiny bubbles!
