Love the fur look! I agree with posting in stages. Besides, I learn so much following along with the stages that other artists post and I'm so grateful that you choose to show WIP's including the "ugly" stages ( I never noticed that it's ugly though!:) )
This weeks colours for The Summer of Color are 2 purples and a yellow and this is what I did with them. Not my favorite colours so really racked my brain trying to think how I could use them and which bird to use. Decided to go with a juvenile Golden Eagle since I don't have any photos of a purple bird :p I think I prefer the black background, the yellow seems to stand out more against it. Which do you prefer?
Looking good Jennifer. Its always a brave move showing the early stages isn't it? .... knowing that there is lots of refining to do.
ReplyDeleteWhat colour/brand of paper are you using. Looks very terracotta but that may just be the photo/scan. The eyes look fantastic against the background.
i like posting work in stages, shows people that the final piece isnt instant and that everything goes through an ugly stage
Deletehmmm its a reddish brown matt board, that doesnt scan or photograph right :/ thankfully the cp colours are scanning properly
