LUPUS CRUS, 2025 Good Mud Exhibition 2025

I find that when working on a square canvas a painting has a more modern look almost immediately. As you can see here, I began on a very warm ground (with my pastel marks being black and red). All the warmth from the ground is coming through in various places because I’m working with a transparent lead white, a cool over warm effect has taken place. In this case, I added a bit of gapka neon yellow into my white to encourage the luminosity of the flesh. The warmth of the ground is a key element to the effect here.

This is very interesting in that back I think when you were interviewed by John Dalton you said you didn’t like warm grounds.
