Since the 10th October I've been working on commissioned work. Having worked full time for Damien Hirst for the best part of the last seven years it has been really liberating to leave that behind to pursue my own work. Although I tend to post progress shots of both commissioned and personal work via my instagram account (@dmcnaboe) I thought I would upload some photographs of the work i've been getting on with this last month and a half. Peace!
'Jawbreaker' Black and white oil paint on stretched canvas, November 2016.
It was really enjoyable to work on this painting. A commissioned black and white oil painting of the American punk band 'Jawbreaker'. I took a lot of pleasure from the contrast between soft/out of focus painting and detailed portraiture.
