I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I have completed a few projects as of late.
I will varnish them early next year. I’ll also be listing originals in Etsy. Right now I am just excited to execute on new ideas. I’ll also be churning out more video content on YouTube.
In light of Inktober, working on “mother and child” as well as a few other oil paintings I haven’t had as much time to study as I’d like. But the few times I have had to work on these types of drawings I have been studying nuances of drapery and clothing folds. It is important to me that various clothing look like the correct material as well as look as if it has weight. Its going to be on when I get my powdered graphite from my parents house! In addition to the learning experience it is great to get the instant gratification of a pretty drawing. Rendering drapery on the level that I like in oils is not a fast process.
