Here is another painting done on a little 10x8 canvas covered cardboard panel. Acrylics are difficult to work with at the best of times compared to oils , which I do not use and have not for a long time , story to this to be told at a later date. This canvas panels are shiner than a stretched canvas less texture or grip for paint.
This image was first designed in a 3d application , modelled in polygons then subdivided , outputted to a raytracing program and rendered , I did not texture it as such kept he plastic shiny look , reminiscent of the early CG on the likes of Prodigy video Fire. I have been using computers for graphics that long ever since I was a kid and rendering a term officially taken from painting has come full circle. Truly I see the benefits of pre visualisation and lighting of my paintings in 3d software. This image looks mathematical and the light accurately depicts its volume. Something I personally could not do with out the use of computers or a life study.
Reminds me of the Japanese devil masks people ware in popular culture.
