"Epee Revolution"
Acrylic on Canvas
14 x 11"
SOLDPrivate Collection -Hackettstown, New Jersey
"Epee Revolution" was a tricky little painting to execute using my "drip and pour" technique. Using this style, I usually like a little more room to let the paint flow and spread on its on. I use a fluid acrylic paint modified with gel medium and that I pour and drip on the canvas. When doing a figure in this manner it can be tricky because the paint wants to spread out as it dries.

The title came about because I kept visualizing turning spheres (circles) while painting and they came through a little in the background plus at the time I was painting this one, I wasn't yet a epee fencer. I was only a foil fencer at the time but I kept meeting epee fencers who liked my art and asking for more epee images. So I started checking out the epee fencers on the strip at the competitions and they looked like they were having so much fun! Long story short.. I still fence foil but Epee Rocks! Let the Revolution Begin!
