Acrylic and charcoal : Paint Me A Clown

I will post details about this demo soon.
The original artwork is now available from the website.
Paint Me A Clown
www.dantirels....
The title refers to the current obsession with Artificial Intelligence and how this might impact on creativity. It has nothing to do with clowns.
I had timelapse version ready to post but someone has already claimed copyright on the royalty FREE music I used even the video is yet to be posted. I will edit a silent version and post later.

Hurrah! Another video emerges! This is a very solid piece and I love the android pieces in charcoal and acrylic. Thank you so much for sharing the creation of this art. I greatly respect your skill and intuitive techniques. Bravo!

[@DanTirels]

You are so welcome! Thanks

[@hschwiebert]

Dan, I see from the comments on some of your older videos, that you use a spray varnish to finish. Can't wait to try this technique. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@DanTirels]

Go for it!

[@claudinediamond2555]

[@DanTirels]

[@ant11368]

[@DanTirels]

Thank you

[@wilhat]

Interesting style how do you protect your art a varnish or straight into a frame.??

[@DanTirels]

Always use a fixative when finishing

[@hschwiebert]

Hi Dan, I just started watching your videos and I am very impressed. I'm curious to know if you spray or otherwise apply some sort of fixative on your work when you are done in order to protect it.

[@DanTirels]

Yes always use a suitable fixative when finished, I sometimes paint over unfixed charcoal for a different texture.

[@dagodemon]

Skynet approves

[@DanTirels]

I hope so!

[@francescaaburabi964]

I happen to like the naturalistic sound of your brushstrokes actually, I prefer it to some of the cheesy background d filler music a lot of artists use

[@DanTirels]

Thank you
