So going into this piece, I'm planning on doing another triptych, but this one I'm purposely doing with a cool-toned palette. I decided to draw Emma, so we used her phone as a blue light to take photos of her face with interesting lighting. I also decided that I'll draw a bird wing as the object as it represents her free-spiritedness. This week, I pretty much just got the photos, drew the outline, and started laying in the base colors. I think the blue will definitely be a challenge, because the light made an almost purple and neon blue which are hard to achieve with blending with a white colored pencil. Maybe I could get a colorless one for the future? I think its also weird because I have 5 blue colors instead of like 20 facial tones so its different. But especially the bright blue near the center of her eye, I think it's going to be hard to achieve. I need to definitely start the bird wing early next week to stay on track.
