City Park Bridge, no. 2

Posted on by Wess Foreman

I painted this image once before in a large format---this one is a more manageable 16x20". I achieved the texture with a combination of paint splatter, manual dotting with a brush, as well as using a sheet of bubble-wrap like a stamp, creating the overall "screen" effect. I really like how well this one turned out. I will probably be doing more in the future utilizing the bubble-wrap stamp technique. The video of the painting process is below.

This is the second painting I've done of this image---City Park Bridge, New Orleans, 16x20"---painted on a smaller canvas than the first time (which was closer to five feet square). Halfway through this video I discovered that I was missing the footage of a crucial step in the look of this piece: a bubblewrap stamp technique.
