Sketches

More sketches from the MET! Iv been trying to go every saturday! Hopefully I can keep it up. Recently iv been paying close attention to my hatching. Iv noticed that if you mark down clear cut lines for hatching, it give the drawing more harmony. So iv been trying to avoid my quick, sloppy hatching habbits. Cheers

Still Life Studies

Apple Study-2011 Media: Digital

In this painting I am trying to practice on my blending , lighting, and proportions. I really like the colors I used here. I think I might make a conceptual piece using these same colors.

Still Life: Pear and Bottle-2011 Media: Oils

This second painting is done in oil. I am fairly new to it. I do enjoy it very much but at the same time it can be frustrating. I have been getting a lot of help from my painting teacher, Patrick Lee. It is greatly helpful to see him paint and talk about his process and techniques. Though I have grasped some of the basic techniques when it comes down using oils and painting in general, it is still a very big challenge to put brush strokes down onto canvas and have the painting look convincible and aesthetic.
