Beau's Sketchbook
#73
A couple of studies. I really focused on communicating planes in the perspective study... Did the traceover, and then tried to recreate the perspective. The anatomy on the lower right I tried to show form on, but it's really hard for me to put it into space yet, because I lack so much in the perspective department. Each stroke On the perspective study was hell- I held my breath and was stiff for each one, but now my hand feels steadier- I don't know if mentioning this sounds like complaining or something, it's not that. I feel like I'm giving myself an excuse with every line I don't think about, so it feels rewarding after making a grid by hand. :)

Spent a lot of time gathering reference today- I have what I think is a complete collection of anatomy reference, and I think I'm good as far as reference goes for the next few months, except for backgrounds.

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.
