Your chance to visit Purple Faye at her studio in Pontefract to buy 3D Acrylic Paintings direct from the artist, see work being made and chat while enjoying some mulled wine and mince pies.
It will be the last day to order your own 3D Acrylic Painting to be made in time for Christmas too so don’t miss out on getting a truly unique gift for someone this year.
You can also grab a bargain as selected work will be REDUCED FOR THAT DAY ONLY
I started to make the”Baby African Elephant” 3D Acrylic Painting in June/July to take to Holmfirth Art Week as part of the demonstration I was doing of how I make my work. I wanted to take some work in progress pieces to help show the process I use to make my work. Since then I’ve been using it to help explain my technique to visitors to my studio in Pontefract but I wanted to get it finished finally. Here’s how I did it.

Modroc stage of the “Baby African Elephant” 3D Acrylic Painting. I left it at this stage for the demonstration to show how the modroc creates the texture of the wrinkles.

Painting the “Baby African Elephant” 3D Acrylic Painting. I started by painting it all black then adding the lighter greys on top.

Painting the background on the “Baby African Elephant” 3D Acrylic Painting. I chose a light sandy colour to contrast with the dark of the elephant and to suggest the colour of the landscape.

Looking toward the doorway of the end studio, I chose not to have this one as my studio because I wanted more wall space (which my studio has, this one has more windows instead)
