Learning to blend with airbrush

Redoing a fountain

This is 1 of the 7 paintings I am currently working on . Dimensions 36 x 48 in . Acrylic , gold leaf and oil paint. Title “ Field of Dreams”. In this body of work I am using old family photographs , this one is of my father working the fields in Mexico before leaving it all behind to come to the United States to chase the American Dream . I added the monarch butterfly which also make a great migrating from mexico to the US . What artworks or series are you working on ? Any themes or techniques you want to share ?

Different approach in comparison to my current painting process , underpainting and glazing then will add opec colors . When painting more realistically I prefer this method. Definitely took some inspiration from this painting method to incorporate into my own painting process that involves a bright undertone with an underpainting and gold leaf

Let’s see how much more I change . I really enjoyed playing with the palette knives and silicone brushes .
