Really dig your environments, deffinately one of your strong suites. I gotta try out a forest painting or something sometime haha. Will keep an eye on your sketchbook for more.

Some car study. I don't know anything about cars really, I usually find them quite boring subject. So I'll have to force myself to draw them more.

Skin tone study. I really like to paint very dark, african faces, because they are actually just as colorful as caucasian skin.

Was busy working on other stuff today, but I managed to do at least one more car study before crashing to bed:

After the motorcycle study I felt like starting on a painting with a motorcycle in it. So I made some preparations.

I know the perspective is off, I need to rest my eyes from the painting a bit before finishing it. Also I don't really know how I want the color scheme.

Some doodle and paintings I did in today's crazy livestream session.

Feels nice to just sit down and paint whatever you feel like.

Haven't been postin' stuff here lately. So I'll fill this post with lots of stuff I've done recently:
[Image: tumblr_m7fnm9jw341qggipfo1_500.png]

Experimenting with the whole concept behind "values + overlay coloring" that I've never really completely understood until lately.

Some exercises of the flexibility of the torso (aka "butt's n boobs poses") and also did a little repetition of the main muscles of the torso and arms.

And here's some masterpainting studies. Next time I think I'll spend a bit more than 1 hour on each piece. The original paintings are done by Albert Bierstadt. His paintings are very atmospheric and inspiring.

It's all okay! Go ahead and do that! :D And thank you so much! I discovered Bierstadt just recently, and his paintings are really inspiring and beautiful. Gonna do some more studies on his stuff in the future.
