I did promise progress shots of my painting, didn’t I?
Behold, my workspace: the kitchen table! Pretty much disables people from eating proper meals whenever I have a plate to do. Lovely. Reference picture, canvas with underpainting, loads of scratch paper, newspaper… check.
… a tree that is f@#$’ed up as thee!
So! I’m actually keeping with the updates! Hahaha!
Today, I’ll be showing some progress shots of my FA13 Watercolor and Felt Tip Tree Plate, which I showed a WIP of a few entries back. It’s nowhere near perfect, but I’m just glad I finished that thing.
This was what I showed you guys the last time. Cropped, but it’ll do. Very basic watercolor base. I laid out a light yellow on everything but the walls to ‘bring the color out more.’ After that, I laid on the colors by layers. I’d put on one color layer, then let that dry, then layer on another of the same color, and so on. After that, I’ll pick a darker shade or a different color altogether and place a little bit of that to show depth.
