Here is my portrait. I used the feedback from class and decided to sharpen the face and the food more than anything else on the canvas to show importance. I tried to keep the background loose and let the red underpainting show through a little.
So this piece still isn't done, although I'm making good progress. I finally think I worked out the anatomy pretty well. I plan to work out the tones, light and shadow in paint and then add pastel pencil to the final layers.
Hi Paul, finally got this to work! I am about 98% complete, still want to adjust the hair color and touch up the shirt collar. I will get a better picture when I re-post as this one is pretty blurry. Any other suggestions?
Hi Paul, Here is my dream job, democracy piece and detour. The others will be posted shortly. Thanks!
