Angel "The Last Temptation of Christ"

2012-01-22T15:48:00.000-08:00

This is the Angel piece that I did as an additional painting while I was working on the "Last Temptation of Christ." The model used a climbing harness, but put it on backwards so he would incline toward me. He was clipped into a rope that hung from a ceiling beam. My studio at that time had a skylight which gave the perfect back light for what I wanted. Yes, he even wore the wings I purchased. This was a very daunting pose for him; one he could only hold for 15 minutes at a time. I placed a model stand below him, and would move some wooden blocks under his feet when he needed a rest.
The painting is 24" x 36" and is on Mahogany. The piece sells for $900.00.

Christ, Last Temptation of Christ

2012-01-14T13:41:00.000-08:00

This is another painting I did of the Last Temptation of Christ. I wanted to paint the details of the model's arms to try to convey the amount of muscles involved in holding such a difficult pose.

I ground the Indigo paint for the sky to get the exact color I wanted.
The painting is 26 x 24 and is oil on Mahogany.

Linda Dalton Walker, Last Temptation of Christ, Oil Painting

2012-01-07T08:30:00.000-08:00

I was reading what Russell Black said about not painting from photos, etc. and it reminded me of painting this image of the crucifixion of Christ. It is a very large painting, 48" x 63", and I felt as if it filled my studio. Even though many of my paintings have creative, imaginative elements, I firmly believe in painting from life. I believe I am able to achieve a much more realistic and solid image.
For the Christ figure, I had a cross made that would fit the model. The model and I laughed when I told him he had to come for his fitting of the cross. The studio I had at that time had a cross beam across the ceiling. The Angel is a rock climber so he tied a secure length of rope around the beam and reversed his climbing harness so he would angle toward me.
Both poses were extremely difficult for the men, and they could only pose for about fifteen minutes before they needed a break. They were never together in the pose, and have never met.
Before I even started the painting, I created a clay model about 12" high, next I created several thumbnail sketches, and a small drawing in charcoal. I also painted a smaller study before I even thought of tackling the larger piece. In addition I did separate paintings of the Angel and Christ figures by themselves. I will post them at a later date.

Well, the Avenue's Street Fair was certainly interesting. The pouring rain and the people kept us busy all day. It is exhausting setting up, talking all day, and breaking it down in the evening. There certainly was a good turn out of people, which added to great people watching.

Why do we do street fairs?

Tarot World

2010-12-27T21:08:00.000-08:00

Tarot World is here to help you with spiritual liberation. This is a period of time when you will become happier and more fulfilled. Use the Tarot World painting as a meditation tool when you are anticipating change or during a time of struggle to help you focus on a happier life ahead.

Leaves represent dying off of the old with the renewal of a new life ahead. Deer in Celtic mythology represent divine messengers. The “velvet” stage of the antlers hold powerful hormones that have a healing effect. They have a strong connection to the feminine and are sacred to the goddesses of birth. These soul guides draw you further and further into the woods. In psychological terms do you need to take a deeper journey into the unconscious? Old attitudes need to die or change.
