Carol Guidi accepts commissions for Executive Portraiture and replicas of the Old Masters. Her goal as a professional artist, is to produce museum quality paintings that will last as long as the Old Masters.
Carol uses only the finest ingredients and materials:
Belgian linen canvas
wooden panels
resin medium
marble dust gesso
the finest professional oil paints
She uses techniques used by the many great masters:
underpainting
Glazes
This is a painting in the underpainting stage on the left. Carol uses Verdaccio or gray green oil color to establish the values of the painting first then applies the color over the established values. This is a practice used by the Old Masters. The impeccable attention to detail is evident in the final work of art on the right.
