"This piece, called Battle is a small one for me, and relatively simple. It was painted for the POW! WOW! Hawaii show curated by Thinkspace Gallery back in February, 2016. ??The original painting was created with oil on a prepared DiBond panel. I actually have the specific dates for this one: I started January 5th and then it was finished and varnished January 19th, 2016.
This one was very organic actually. It was my first shoot with the model, and I asked that she bring some stuff that might be fun to paint — which is a terribly vague request to make of somebody that isn't a painter. She came wearing this leather jacket with traditional pyramid studs, and also these little metal dots (for lack of a better word.) I was super into it so we started there. I think the reference shot I ended up painting was really early in the session, and I don't think I did any work in photoshop to come up with the final comp." - Aaron Nagel
