48×96 inches equals 4×8 feet Giant

Original acrylic on linen.

This painting is a bit different than Dapore’s normal workings.

Instead of the normal cotton duct canvas Theo’s choice the finer mesh lighter weight linen.

The painting approach is large water bled acrylic. The acrylic is painted directly on the raw linen

which absorbed the acrylic water mixed readily. A greater effect obtained, with cotton primed canvas

the flooding of the acrylic doesn’t bite in as well.

There is not of techniques to go into detail as I would normally describe in  depth the step by step process

of a painting.

The paint was applied with a water solution to create a consistency much like a watercolor painting.

With the huge size of the canvas Theo worked quickly adding layer upon layer of paint that would softly

blend into the underlying wet paint. Some areas  the straight water solution was applied which lifted color.

The small image that you can see on your screen is nothing compared to standing in front of this

enormous piece of art.

One interesting point is that the painting may be displayed as pictured or flipped 180.

The painting is still in the Studios possession if there is a interest contact the studio.
