So her eare todays additions to the painting, coming along nicely I think. Bit of drawing this afternoon, if it doesn't end up in the bin I'll post a pic later ;)
I really like the reds and browns together. Its coming along very nice. :) I have never tried using the grid when painting. Maybe I will try that and then MAYBE I can paint some faces finally. You know I heard that there are artists who use projectors too! Would you call that cheating? Not sure how I feel about it. Its tempting.. but I want to make sure I can paint without one first.. then use it.
Well if projecting images was good enough for the masters than its good enough for you and me! They did something very similar using pin hole style camera system. hope this link works for you, found this on the bbc's website
Oh cool. I am going to check it out. I have not been on much. My kids are all home for spring break and there is NO Way I can focus on much when they are around :)

ReplyDeletelol yeah we have a friend staying and I always feel a bit guilty about holing myself up in the studio and working rather than socialising...
