Jasmine Lea Hoskins_ Crit of Howard Crokett

Howard hung a primed canvas on the wall. He was working with a gray acrylic as a base for the beginning of his painted layers. Beneath this gray wash a face softly pears through.
He seemed to be preparing for a painting of a self portrait.
We spoke after the crit and he explained that he was going to do a piece focused on the destruction of the forests and rain forests and his belief toward that subject.

  2. The gray canvas gave me a feeling of being smogged?! It was deep and meaningful. I am so glad that you felt you could open up like that to the class. A mazing!!!!!
