I started a new painting for fall. Here is the drawing. |
The underpainting. Wow. What a mess that looks like huh? |
This is my third repainting of the underpainting. I'm trying to match the hazy grey background of my reference photo. I think this is it! |
Underpainted the background leaves. |
Stared adding basic trunks and branches. |
Adding color. |
Underpainted the foreground and started punching up the background color (red this session). |
Blended in the foreground some and added another layer of highlights to the leaves. I'm going to have to start on the rocks and water soon. |
It's time to start the stream and the area around it
so I figured I should do some practice streams first. |
Started blocking in the rocks and the waterfalls. |
Highlighted the rocks. There are about five layers of highlights on the rocks now. |
Highlighted the leaves. I'm going to sleep on it, but I may be calling this done. Of course I'll upload a better pic. |
