#Repost from LCAD MFA Alumnus Kenny Harris @kennyharrispaintings ・・・ I'm asked why I paint on plexiglass-- it was an idea I got from #davidhockney 's writings about Ingres using a camera lucida to establish likeness and shapes in his drawings. I thought it would make sense to 'trace' a likeness from life then paint it #sightsize immediately (placing a board behind it for a ground color). I understand tracing on glass was an old drawing technique/learning tool. I'm not sure if the results are really beneficial, but it is fun! #contemporaryrealism #portrait #portraiture #oilstudy #studiolife #oilpainting @indigopond #ingres #cameralucida #plexiglass (at LCAD MFA)
