Technique - close up

[Alexandra Tyng]

Bill, thanks so much for taking the time to photograph all these paintings and post them! What a treasure trove of beautiful work. It's so valuable to be able to see the mastery of another artist, especially close up. Sometime I hope to see some of this work in person, but the internet is still a remarkable teaching tool. I also especially like the ones with the livelier brushstrokes.

Thanks Bill,

This is an amazing treat and beautiful study collection of your great command and fresh crisp exact technique.

Thanks everyone.
I relieve stress by doing these fun pieces from time to time. This is a new 8x10 oil on panel. I did it as an exercise for my student apprentices.
The close up is much larger than the actual painting.
