ARTLANDO Competition Painting

Started with a blank canvas at 11:30am and finished by 5pm on Sat. Oct. 27, 2014 at the first ARTLANDO event.  This big one day Art Fest took place in Loch Haven Park, Orlando FL.

"SUBWAY METRO" by Bonnie Sprung

This painting is the first in a new series. I'm still working on a series title.

The series will be of two images of the same but in two different places.

Back in 2002 I was riding the Paris Metro and this accordion player comes onto the car and plays. Of course I photographed him and painted him in oil on wood.

Then recently Sept. 2014 I was riding the New York Subway and this accordion player comes onto the car and plays. Of course I photographed him and thought what a cool concept to paint the two accordion player images together.

Here is the original photographs put together and desaturated the color.

The way I paint.... I use an assortment of bright acrylic colors then I finish off the painting with a combination two or three colors in oil.
