"Work In Progress" by Damien Venditti

Damien Venditti › Journal › Work In Progress

this painting began with just an idea in my head, i abandoned any planning out, in favour of just letting it evolve …. i had my doubts at several stages .. thankfully a few talented artist’s gave me much needed encouragement … with any luck i will be uploading the final painting in a day or two : )) i hope u enjoy

Hey, Damien…This is great. Whenever I get to where you were with this, I usually let it sit, and it usually comes down to adding details, mate! Nice job!

I bet considering how long this has taken – almost a month I think.
Damien Venditti:

yeah it has taken a while … i did my best to avoid planning, but i did take my time … i’ve got a few oil paintings on the go as well … god only knows when they’ll see the finish line … three and a half months till work .. gotta get a move on
Carmen Cilliers

(on and off since I know you do other things as well obviously hehe, not just sit and paint all day long as much as you may like too).

Brilliant Damien- once again- the whole growth and birth of the painting- and I see you still managed to get a “incling” of the guitar- awesome work and brilliant choice of colours.
