Exhibition portraits day three

Andrew

I really enjoyed my day at the exhibition today again! Lots and lots of visitors and yet somehow in the midst of it all I managed portrait number three! Here is Andrew.

I was prompted to take a couple of photos during the process today, I'm so glad I did.

The early stages, applying shadow and rubbing out highlights with a rag

The end of the underpainting, using just raw umber up to now

Applying colour, after a lunch break

Pssst! The exhibition paintings are now live on my website! Most of them are there anyway, I just need to add another six soon. Click here to view!
