Works in progress from this week. Currently attending the Chautauqua Art Program these next few weeks. Really enjoying the atmosphere and environment to make work. #thomasmcbroom #studio #wip #uark #art #grad #finearts #oilpaint #breaktime #artistsoninstagram (at Chautauqua Institution)
The next move. Side by side comparison... took several things out and pulled the plant forward. While still keeping the previous layers making this change mesh with the image overall. Next few hours will be drawing/masking. Then painting for next two days anddddd critique! #thomasmcbroom #oilpainting #observational #gradschool #artistsoninstagram #stilllife (at University of Arkansas)
Everything is wet. In the studio tonight working along in this one. Cleaning up some of the leaves and maybe smooth out a few transitional areas. Not much more to do! #thomasmcbroom #oilpainting #observational #abstraction #artistsoninstagram #color #visualarts #wetpaint #wip (at University of Arkansas)
Learning how to use a straight edge... it's getting there. Structuring certain areas to give this mess an order. Simplified the top portion and complicating other areas. Definitely work in progress. #thomasmcbroom #oilpainting #wip #stilllife #realism #abstract #edges #eraser #indieink #visualarts #observation (at University of Arkansas)
Progression set of a painting I did last year. Set up shop in a corner of the studio with an everyday interior scene. Became interested in how forms could become abstract or realistic depending on how tight the information was focused. Was pleased with the basic movement across the picture plane but was never able to get a sense of depth/space. The colors became dominate which was a happy dynamic of the muted/chromatic surfaces.
Studio wall at the moment. Trying to piece together concept with process. Thinking about how I react to work that involves and shows an obsessive process. What is this person after? Does that relate to the work? Yeah, maybe, nope. The "important" questions that come up will keep resurfacing. Just have to nail them down before they fade away. #thomasmcbroom #studio #process #concept #notes #references #sketches #mess (at University of Arkansas)
Two week session of a self portrait this month. Started with simple values/chroma and added more specific information as the sittings progressed. Did something different with a colored underpainting in rose madder. Really like how that peeks through in some areas.
New wip. Just need to touch up the hair... #thomasmcbroom #artistontumblr #limitedpalette #observational #oilpainting #portrait #light #wip #visualarts #progress #studiosession (at University of Arkansas)
Detail of work in progress. Working on this section today. measuring, marking , moving, repeat #thomasmcbroom #artistontumblr #dumbcolors #oilpainting #skeleton #directobservation #drafting #headache (at University of Arkansas)
Beginning a panoramic view of the studio. A new approach with my practice of measuring and perception. Kinda excited Mineral spirits/drying oil with a construction crayon to draw the structures. The sketchy look will become more clean as the painting progresses. #thomasmcbroom #visualarts #wip #sketchy #oilpaint #observational #stilllife #artistontumblr #perception #measuring #panoramic (at University of Arkansas)
Starting to come together. Letting this sit for a few days before I stitch areas together. Using vandyke brown, Indian red, arctic blue, and Naples yellow. Gamblin solvent free gel was used in this layer. I found that the brushes stiffened up as the session progressed. #thomasmcbroom #artistsontumblr #observational #portrait #oilpainting #figurative #visualarts (at University of Arkansas)
Made some oil crayons. Interesting results on first and second time. Used a mold to create the bottom version. The top version just poured into a block and cut into chunks. Materials: beeswax, oil paint, turpentine. (3, 3, .25) If I do this again I'll do less wax and more pigment. #thomasmcbroom #oilpaint #wax #crayon #experiment #artistsoninstagram #material #process #mfa (at University of Arkansas)
Adding color into the study. Limited palette: Prussian, phthalo green, orange rust, and raw sienna. #thomasmcbroom #artistsontumblr #observational #oilpainting #study #wip #visualarts #stilllife (at University of Arkansas)
Back from the break. Starting out another still life with some lovely magenta. #thomasmcbroom #observational #artistsoninstagram #oilpainting #sketch #oiloncanvas #finearts (at University of Arkansas)
With finals this week, I needed to sneak into the studio to do a study of this lovely plant. (at University of Arkansas)
Work for upcoming critique this week. Had amazing help from @artbycksanderson with the install at sUgAR gallery. (at sUgAR)
10-18 (at University of Arkansas)
