I finished sketching the International dump truck on canvas and then ran I few errands, just as I stated I would. Pretty good!Before I started painting, I created a quick painting of the dump truck in my sketchbook using acrylic paints. I was quickly reminded why I don't work in acrylic paint...they dry much to fast. The practice made me eager to get started on the actual painting. No delay this time, I got right to work! I painted in the background and the windows of the dump truck, starting again with the areas that are furthest away from the viewer. To get the windows really dark, I combined lamp black, ultramarine blue and cobalt blue. How I love the smoothness of oil paint and how they blend together so easily!
