Drum roll please....
In the spirit of my Hot 100 series of past yore, I am now working on an image of the week, for only that week, and posting (hopefully) daily progress here, with weekly updates on FB.
Tahhh-daah!
Here is this week’s reference photo...my half pint muse at my goddaughter’s wedding...
“ Hmmmm, I wonder if they will like the designer toaster I got them..."
And now a sketch I have made of it today...
Moving onto a 5 step value scale study to see if spaces and shapes will work out.
just the faintest wash first, barely able to see the highlights...
bringing in the value scale as a reference guide...
no details wanted here, just rendering major shapes and groupings...
pushing to the far end of the value scale to give a sense of space.
This monochromatic study and sketch will both be a big help when I start to work with color tomorrow.
