This is the most textural painting made so far. Whenever your subject allows you to create a solid mix of transparency and thick opaque applications, take advantage of it! Painting this way is fun, and forces you to think about a singular use of shape and color as a means to immediate drawing.
Rembrandt and other masters used this method to achieve stunning results. Lana and I always love looking at his pieces, and were thrilled to come across subject matter where we could try our hand with this juicy application of paint. Although Affinity is broadly about everyday objects and their relationship to our lives , we were really looking to bridge the space between neo-pop painting and classical technique.
