@Vicianus Thank you. :) Hm, I don't really know, but I work like one hour tops at a time, there are a few reasons for it, first I don't want to rush it and get frustrated on it like on my previous attemps as these pieces are most likely going to my portfolio, so gotta be real thoughtfull there.
I view these "back and forth"s on these paintings as what other artists do with their thumbnails before painting, like frazetta or something (I'm not comparing myself to him lol, just the way you as an artist have to plan before doing something bigger), but since I suck at thumbnails at the moment, I have to do these bigger ones.
Lastly it's because I don't "feel" the painting, I know I've got a decent idea but what I did on paper/monitor does not match what I am trying to envision, so I've got to tweak a lot until I feel it's good then I go for it. On these last character studies there are no worries with composition and atmospheres so I just blast them through.
@LaleAnn Thank you thank you, I will try!
@Nikt Haha, NO I WILL! lol She will be barefoot but not haired most likely, just dirted feet making her more in tune with the earth. :)
Just woke up, great day ahead!
