Fallen behind again on updating. Better late than never.......
Anyway here is a dump of some work from when I last posted.
Gesture Portrait Paintiing
Week 3
Week 4
Week 5
Costumed Portrait Painting
Week 3
Week 4
Week 5
Current Progress
Pretty much have the painting finished. Plan on correcting some of the shadows on the face, mainly some of the cool notes on the face in the shadows since they don't look right and need to be warmer. Saw that there are some painting competitions open for submission so I was planning on submitting it once I've done these corrections. There are definitely areas that I can improve upon but I thought what the hell, I'll see what happens.
Life Drawing
Portrait
Figure
Still feel like I'm in abit of a rut. I'm still practicing daily whether it be taking these critiqued classes or drawing from life but it feels like forever since I've just focused on a specific area and just grinded and got better. Think I said a month or so ago I wanted to start tackling my problem areas starting with construction/lay-ins. Plan on tackling those next month and take some classes that focus specifically on it and just grind away. Hopefully that will get me out of this rut.
Working on an illustration atm, stll in the early stages so not alot to show but I'll post once I have more to show.
I'll be taking a painting workshop next week with Patrick Byrnes which is an alla prima protrait painting workshop so I've been busy prepping for that. Hoping to learn alot from it so I'm really excited. Planning on taking lots of notes so I'll post them here if anyone is interested. :)
