Would you tell us the size and type of support you are using -- rigid panel, linen, cotton?

Also, are we viewing the full composition, or have you cropped in some?

Thanks, Mike. In my work I use high quality linen. The size of large portrait is 85cmx120cm. And the composition is a little cropped.

Well, specially on the seated figure, I was thinking about asking if you used some kind of grisaille or verdaccio underneath, but you already asked you didnt and used more of a direct method of painting.

Please, post more of your work.

Rui.

A warm welcome to you, Andrey,

Thanks for sharing your wonderful work, that woman in pink is a spectacular piece. I really can't offer any suggestions, but would make some comments.

Your use of edges and control of your color saturation make her spill right out of the canvas toward me. The drawing is beautiful, the composition is very commanding. The color harmony is beautiful and unified, and lends grace and dignity to a beautiful subject. Would you post some close ups of the face and hands?

They just couldn't be more perfect. Congratulations, and I hope you continue to post your work

Hi, Chris.
Thank for your response. I'll necessarily make zoom a little later. I'm sorry, but I'm not guided absolutely well yet at a forum because I was registered only several days ago there.
Best
Andrey

Hi, Rui,
In a portrait of lady in pink I used multicolor underlayer or prime paint layer. From the first I try to paint accurately as much as possible to not spend a lot of time for correction of mistakes. Therefore I use simultaneously some palettes sometimes up to 6. Thus I solve a problem very precisely in prime layer, gradually correcting a color and key \Whistler's method \ .My other works I'll show necessarily, but a little later

Hi Andrey,

Welcome to the forum.

I am very impressed of your paintings and hope that you will participate i the critique of paintings presented here.

I know that Russian schools do teach the traditional skills of drawing and painting, but would like very much if you would tell some more about how it actually works, please.

You have presented a traditional portrait, and a very fine one, beside a more "modern" one. How do you feel it should be?

Hi, Allan.
I'll necessarily participate in a forum. I need a few time to accustom to the new informative environment for me. If I have understood you correctly , you wish to learn more about the Russian art education and how it actually works. It seems to me, my comprehensive answer to your question can occupy many pages, because the Russian Art academy was mark by celebration the anniversary of 250 years recently.
Dear ALlan, could you formulate more particularly your question which I'll answer you with pleasure .
Once again I thank you for warm words.
Yours faithfully
Andrey
