In January 2020 I set out to do a double panel painting/illustration based on the
White Moonlight illustration from August 2019. This time I wanted to include a black rhino.
Framed, finally!.
Technique and materials:
Gouache and Watercolour paint on gesso board (gesso primer as a textured background). This is then carried through using the rubaway technique – highlights are rubbed away and mid and dark tones added.
Completed 9 April 2020 during the Covid-19 lockdown.
For print-on-demand prints of these two panels visit my
Zazzle store and
Society6 store.
The final work measures 162cm x 51cm (each panel at 81cm x 51cm).
