Clarisse's sketchbook

[Clarisse Silva]

@iamorim  - Thanks! :)   I've already studied through Loomis but yeah, maybe it is in fact a good time to get back to it.  Concerning to painting, I usually start with color right away, and maybe that's why the final result is not that good, have to try more often to put down the values first. However, each time that I put down the values first, in black and white, after doing it, I always feel kinda lost on how to move on to painting; I mean, do you reduce the opacity in the value layer and then apply color on top? Or do you apply a color balance in the value layer to put it in the general tone of your painting and then, from that, you continue painting on top? D:

Anyway, thanks again, your suggestions and reminder to get back to Loomis were very helpful! :D
