Francoise Nielly


I have been experimenting with palette knife painting and I came across this woman.  I really LOVE the colors she uses in her palette to paint the faces from this video. Color is something I struggle with in my works, I have a hard to letting go and being more dramatic with my color application and choice, but watching her very much urges me to want to try.

 I am really paying attention to the way she transports the paint from the the knife onto the canvas. I am watching for how she is flicking her wrist and the direction of the knife when she paints thick to thin lines.
