OK. Very good advice so far. Thanks Michael and Debra for your quick responses. I truly do plan to do this painting in one hour, as the band is only on stage for one hour ... but I will have plenty of time beforehand to set up and prepare the canvas and the paint. I am hoping to get a block in completed by the time the singer performs a slower number when she sits on a stool with her guitar. Then, I'll sketch her out as quickly as possible (while having a friend take photos), and try to complete her in the studio. Should be interesting.
Michael, how would you recommend I pre-mix the paint? Obviously, I'll have all my paint squeezed out onto the palette, but I think you mean taking time before the performance to mix up some obvious tones?
This project is more of a "performance" than a commission. It is my fifth one this summer (first portrait, however), and the previous four have been really fun and successful.
I guess my biggest issue is lack of electricity. I'll try a Coleman lantern and a flashlight. Yikes. I think I am crazy.
Will post the painting to this topic on Friday.
