NUDE PAINTINGS, NOT AS IN THE SUBJECT, BUT THE PROCESS. I LIKE TO HAVE A PRIOR SURFACE TO PAINT OVER BEFORE 'STARTING' A PAINTING, SO I TEND TO WIPE MY BRUSHES OVER THE BLANK CANVAS OR LINEN TO ROUGH IT UP A BIT. I THINK IT''S PART OF DISRESPECTING THE SURFACE SO YOU TAKE AWAY ITS PERCEIVED PRECIOUSNESS. BELOW IS AN EXAMPLE- I'D PAINTED THE BROWN BORDER, THEN USED UP SOME DILUTED PAINT TO FORM THE NUDE FLAGELLATI, READY TO HITCH WITH HIS SUITCASE (I'LL PROBABLY USE THAT AT SOME LATER STAGE). AND.... VOILA- THEN THERE'S THE FINISHED WORK. IN THE DETAILS BELOW, YOU CAN SEE THE REMNANTS OF THE FORM OF THE STAR AND THE TOP OF THE FLAGELLATI'S HOOD.
