Peter's Sketchbook

[Peter]

Just a quick update, haven't had as much time the past week as I usually do and had some issues with motivation but still plodding along. Hopefully I can get back into my regular routine now.

Observational Colour

Moving away from still lifes and using a warm/cool pallette and exploring the zorn palette and portrait painting. This week was simply exploring the zorn palette and mixing some skin tones for pale and dark skin, and variations of warm/cool tones.

Experimented with 2 versions of yellow ochre as I couldn't get ahold of the particular brand of yellow ochre that Meadow recommended (gamblin) which is alot warmer and more vibrant than what I have here.






Spectrum

Worked on my tonal comp some more based on Erik's feedback, trying to push it as much as I can.




Colour comps

Exploring different colour comps. These were all based on the colour choices of different pieces of artwork that I liked and thought might suit the mood I wanted.




Chosen Colour Comp

This is the colour comp I liked the most and ended up choosing.




Got some small correctional changes to do on my tonal comp (based on this weeks feedback) so once that is done I'll move onto actually painting it.
