A 365 day art project… one drawing a day
I like the boldness of my first attempt better but some points of execution in this second much better. The dude, her hair. I chose a muted palette for the dreariness but prefer bold color I think. Working with the Daniel Smith paints (relying heavily upon Bloodstone, a new favorite neutral of mine) was a pleasure, as always. I may brighten the colors, I think, later.
Just some sketches… I was trying the sketching pencil I got recently, but it wasn’t thin enough for the tiny details.
Sennelier paint on khadi paper. The shadows are killing me. But it’s the paint this time.
I have tried and tried to get a good shadow using different colors, it just keeps lifting color away. Best I can do right now is a muddy gray.
