Posterized Clouds
Today I was reading some drawing tutorials on the Cennini site when I came across an idea that resonated with me. Why not try posterizing an image to simplify the tonal range? Here I take the yesterday's cloud photo and expand the tonal range before posterizing into 12 levels. Tonight I will use it for practice exercises.

Hi John,
ReplyDeleteThis reminded me of an artist I saw at the Blue Heron gallery on the Cape. Many of his subjects are cloudy landscapes in charcoal. When I first saw them, even close up, I thought they were photographs. Here's a link to some of his work:
