Buddha Statue Painting – Acrylic painting
About this Buddha statue painting, I had shared in work in progress post I had shared last week. Normally whatever I share in work in progress post, takes minimum 10 to 15 days to finish. For some I take months. This one I could finish in one week, as this was made in workshop, under expert guidance.
This is an acrylic painting. The acrylic painting workshop was conducted in the studio, where I am a regular student. This was conducted under guidance of Shri Rajesh Anand Sir. I am always fan of his paintings and I consider myself lucky that I have got opportunity to learn from him. He has magic in his hands, with which he creates wonderful paintings. I will write about in detail in coming posts. Last time too I had learnt Buddha painting from him. With the some confidence I chose the image of Buddha statue painting this time. But as went on painting, I understood this painting is beyond my capabilities. This is realistic image. As it progressed I started feeling the difficulty. Only basic painting I made, rest of the painting is completed by the art teacher.
Here is the painting:
The painting
One more close up
You can see the golden color finishing in the painting. This effect is achieved without using any golden or shiny paints. Instead, this is achieved using Yellow ochre , Orange and Brown etc.
You can see one more big painting of Buddha, made by another learner, using different technique.
Two Buddha statue paintings, made using different techniques.
The painting behind is 5 feet X 5 feet painting.
As a learner , I cannot say I am confident of making such paintings. But I have learnt some techniques of such acrylic paintings. Learning is always a process and there is no end to it. I have decided to improve my skills by enrolling to some short term courses, which is given by Shri Rajesh Anand Sir. About these courses I will write in one of the coming posts. Keep visiting this blog to know about different arts and crafts of the world.
Love, Laugh and Live the life to the fullest,
