Heart of Stone by Tom Blood

Have you ever wondered how an artist can start with a blank canvas and end up with a spectacular work of art? 
 
An artist’s work of art takes much thought and preparation. Before they even pick up a paintbrush, an artist has spent time thinking about their subject, creating a composition, doing quick sketches, taking reference photos, and developing a color scheme to achieve the overall mood they wish to convey. In addition, all their years of practicing art and developing their skills are reflected in each creation. 

Self-taught artist Tom Blood shares with B Extraordinaire Gallery his process for creating his “Heart of Stone” painting from the moment he picks up his brush until he is finished.  Learn more about Tom and his art at B Extraordinaire Gallery.
