To soften and blend the composition I used light acrylic glaze coates and finished the artwork with a coat of matte acrylic varnish.
For this artwork I had a photographs of my "Blacksmith 35" studies which were then digitally manipulated to dissolve the images then printed onto Archers watercolour paper. I then used watercolour pencils and watercolour to create the background and work on the dissolved images. I finished the picture with acrylic glazes and a coat of acrylic varnish.

In this painting I have attempted to portray the waining of popularity of the traditional approach to nude painting by using the effect of surface peeling inorder to invite the viewer to explore the composition.
