Color Time! Day 1

Here’s the first step of color from last weeks underpainting. 3 more classes til the end of class and I’m going to focus on making this as finished as I can and learn as much as I can in the short amount of time we have left.

Class Time! Wash 5

Img_0017

Decided to do one more underpainting since the likeness of the model just wasn't there yet. Glad I did as this is way closer to what the model actually looks like. Pretty happy. Starting color this week and will have the remaining 4 weeks of class dedicated to finishing the color.

Class Time! Wash 4

Here's my 4th wash from class. Didn't take a photo of #3. Going to start color next week. Getting better at proportions but I still tend to elongate the face a bit too much. Ah well I'm starting color on this one. Not 100% caring if it's not completely accurate since there's only 5 more classes and I need to get some color time in!

Class Time: Wash 2

Here's my second wash (underpainting) of the same woman slightly different angle. Proportions are better than the first wash but still not perfect. I had 2 hours less time also so I'm already seeing improvement.

Last week we started learning about color and how to mix to achieve any color you need to reproduce. It's opened up my eyes to color like I've never been able to understand before. No more guessing games.

Class Time

Img_0008

Had my first painting session in the class I'm taking. For the next couple classes we're just concentrating on the underpainting in raw umber. We're doing a wash from a still-life model each class which is a first for me. I realy like this technique and it makes a lot of sense to get proportion and value down quickly.
