In order to prepare myself on a painting I do research and make sketches on paper. Often with acrylics, ink and/or oil pastels. Sometimes with collages. It is to get a feeling of the person and items I will portray in the final painting and a try out of the colors to use. A few of these (often little) sketch works I will frame and sell in my webshop.
