This canvas is 36 x 48”, and I view it horizontally while I paint. I am drawn to the yellows in “Goddess and her Consort” and I want to paint them on a grander scale. I should note that I paint around the edge of the canvas and the 1.5 inch edges are extensions of the artwork and can be viewed as paintings in their own right from the side. You will have to come see the originals to get the full impact.
Photo 1: I used a long handled #16 round brush and primary yellow paint for all the shapes. My reaction is to paint more yellow and use even larger shapes. There is an awkward shape, sort of an upside down pear with a long stem. It bothers me.
