Beau's Sketchbook
#57
Some smoke studies, I didn't spend much time on the backgrounds relative to the smoke. Each study took around an hour and a half. I made sure to think about brushstroke economy and form. I'm having trouble wrapping my brushstrokes, maybe that means I should do perspective studies, because it's been awhile. It'll be much easier when I can imagine the form going into space. I always gets super confused about the horizon line, and the viewer's eye, and like... I don't know, it's weird. Anyway, have a good day guys, i'm gonna work on client stuff till tonight and then sleep.

1. Use the biggest brush possible for a given passage.
2. Paint large shapes first, followed by small shapes.
3. Save your tonal and chromatic accents until the last.
4. Try to soften any edge that doesn’t need to be sharp.
5. Take time to get the center of interest right.

Or, the briefer version: (B.L.A.S.T.)
Big brushes.
Large to small.
Accents last.
Soften edges.
Take your time.
