Ah, I'll just post a link to the beginning of my art career, that was documented in this thread.I'm sure fwd would oblige if you ask him. He's a good sort.
Oh, thank you Mozmar!@Famous when dead would it be possible to re-house LH's painting stuff to its new place at some point, please?
Fake C suggesting orders from his fainting couch as he runs Light Housework to the ground. 🖌 No shame this FC!or rando anon complainer could get an account and put Light Housework on ignore?
This post got me on the right path, which led to finding out how to do wet on dry technique eventually, via YouTube videos. Hooray!@Light Housework I think your self portrait was your best work but there is something happening with your technique that seems like you're getting more comfortable getting the paint to do what you want.
There are two things happening. One is the paint and I think the more you work with it the better you will get. The other is the drawing. Because you were working from a photo for your self portrait instead of your imagination I think it has something more distinctly "you."
So one part is handling the paint. The other part is drawing something you see. It's okay to draw from your imagination or from memory but drawing things you see will also give you skills to draw from your imagination.
I know you want to paint people you've known and that you might not have photos to work from but also practice your drawing and if possible get someone to sit for you so you can do some sketches from life. Painting or drawing someone sitting in front of you is different than working from photos and will make you better.
I like the process of painting too and seeing the stages. It's cool that you show the works in progress. That would be good for your youtube channel. But I also like it when I look at a painting and see the process, such as seeing pencil drawing in places where the paint hasn't hidden it.
This one shows some sketching that was done before paint was applied. Some people do ink and watercolor, too. I think the line under her right arm is pencil and then you can see other lines that are thicker and colored that are drawn with a paintbrush.
This is just a random one I found googling "watercolor pencil drawing from life."
to thank FC for his wet on dry art advice
making his portrait is order. here us a recect photo of 'F 'Billy Idol' Cham' for you to work off if:
You should make a painting of her holding your $5 and make her famous.Today a cashier ripped me off for $5. It's bothered me. She charged it as 'other' on the receipt. It's coming out of my bum fund.
Was it that rifke? She's one of those check-out bints, isn't she?Today a cashier ripped me off for $5. It's bothered me. She charged it as 'other' on the receipt. It's coming out of my bum fund.
I think the girl at The Pit And Pendulum might be psychic. I said 'what is it I like about you?' She said 'I don't know?' It's as though she read my mind. Uncanny.
Maybe while you're out go & check out the latest Banksy painting in Lenton. Only take you 30 mins walking or 10 mins in a taxi.I think the girl at The Pit And Pendulum might be psychic. I said 'what is it I like about you?' She said 'I don't know?' It's as though she read my mind. Uncanny.
Luckily it was screen protected before it was vandalised, according to that article.We were talking about that. Only a Banksy painting could be vandalised in Nottingham.
