This week I finished the independent project. I first went back over the skin, trying to add more contrast. The hardest part was the edge of her chin where there was a blue shadow which I found difficult to recreate. Also the lips were very challenging and I’m still not completely happy with how they look. Then I repainted the fingers and struggled to make the knuckles look right. The right-most finger I pretty much had to change from the photo because it was looking really weird. Then I painted a purple shirt to play off of the yellow lemon. Then, I started painting the background a red-orange color, but that didn’t look very good, so I repainted it lime green. I think the skin still looks a little weird, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. For my in-class project I finally finished my sketch and mostly finished Brunei underpainting. I personally struggle with painting from life so this is definitely a challenge for me. I think it looks pretty good. Next step is to add some highlights.
