Ink Sketch 1

Ink Sketch 1

Did not feel right to let inktober pass without making an effort. The dogs were done with a  pen.  The sketch of the boy is a study of at  school doors by Nikolay Bogdanov Belsky and was done with a brush pen.  More to follow.

Worked on this for a while trying to work out textures and lighting in between other studies. Glad I didn't abandon about half way through. It started out from this  which I  like because of the lighting.

Another round of sketches from pixellovely.  Class format so they range from 30 seconds to 1 hour attempts.  Did these while testing out the Twitch service for streaming here.  Trying to sort out my internet service so I will be able to do this more regularly.

After the portrait practice tried out some characters from imagination in gouache.  On the whole an ugly bunch.

A landscape study after Shishkin. Lots of different temperature greens.  

Zebeck After Haag- Gouache Study

Zebeck After Haag- Gouache Study

 Tried another gouache study copying Carl Haag again.  Like the ease of establishing edges and unlike acrylic can go over dried areas and rework.
