Acrylic
I finally got a chance to create figure paintings. I've always wanted to try but had no idea where to begin. For this assignment, we used our sketches from earlier in the week to paint themI watched a bunch of tutorials at first about how to blend skin tones properly and which base colors to use. The one I subscribed to that I really liked the most was from an artist named Eric T. Francis. I hadn't heard of him before, but I'm really glad I found him in my search!
I have no idea why I was so apprehensive about painting. I had a ton of fun once I got into it and started to understand a little bit how to get the right tone. Not bad for a first attempt at painting a figure with acrylics! I'm pretty happy about this!! I will definitely use it more and paint some landscapes in the future.
I dig the first painting...I like them all but the first one has that "suspension" draw...
ReplyDeleteHa, I like that term "suspension". Maybe I should start naming my work too :)
