Hi all,
Amongst the chaos of moving I have found the time to work a little more on Troy. It is not going the way I had hoped, and at the moment is still in what I call its ugly stage, so I am seeing all the faults with it. I like the photo but wish I had not taken it such bright sunlight as it is picking up all the heavy shadows, not something I normally do, but in that particular situation unavoidable, so I am going to use a bit of creative license to remedy that. The colours I am using are peach beige, brown ochre,beige sienna,burnt ochre,burnt umber,brown umber and a few greys. As it goes on there will be a few more colours added for the tongue etc, but those listed today are the base colours.
What a cutie! I am looking and following this to see it finished. I love your work and find it inspiring. So, I am passing on an award to you, which you can find at my blog. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine for the award, am very chuffed.
