I was up late into the night working the two exercises. Although spending most of the time on this rose, I did start ink washes for cast and contained shadows. More updates to come later in the day.
Here's a wrap on the oak piece. I ended up getting a slow start--dishes and laundry and groceries. Ugh!
So much fun to see the exploration of different mediums; easy to be so influenced by color but your rose is truly a stunner! Also enjoyed enlarging the acorns and seeing the detailed line work in the caps.

There is something about working in many media that lets me focus more on light and form. That's the best I can describe at this time. It's like I know I've grown but I'm not totally sure yet how.
ReplyDeleteI REALLY like this !
ReplyDeleteThanks, Val. :-)
ReplyDeleteAlong with this, I had mentioned in my weekly course course journal that advanced planning was also being drawn out. So many media seems to shake things loose. My instructor loved that comment.
ReplyDeleteI suspect educators like yourselves see the value of such a technique for guiding the student into a new perspective?
