I finally finished the Girl portrait painting.
You may remember the WIP in the previous post. Since this WIP I started 4 times over with this painting. There were areas which didn’t work so as I wanted to have them.
A great help for me was to photograph stages of my working process. I then turned them in black/white photos in photoshop and compared it to my referenzphoto, which I also made black and white. This helps extremely to see the values.
Doris,
absolutely stunning! you captured the expression well.
beautiful job Doris! Great idea about making a black and white copy to check values.
Wow! I really love this. You are a very talented watercolourist. I wish I was!! I really ony work in pastel and oil at the moment but your work is so inspiring.
This turned out beautifully Doris. You’ve really captured her wistful expression, its lovely!
Thank you Tracy
Thank you Sally, your work is also absolutely beautiful.
Thank you Mona, yes the black and white copy was perfect to work with.
