Totally whiffed on the face, but oh well. I was more focused on overall shapes - that's my excuse, haha!
Drawings and paintings from life, from my addled head, and others. This blog documents the often rough bits of my journey as an artist, as opposed to the nicer, pleasing bits.

Sargent day 11
So far this has been the most confusing one for me - so many subtle color variations..Not sure it looks like the actual piece, but I guess it didn't turn out terrible, though.

Sargent day 8
It's the initial to mid stages that seem the most difficult to me...getting a the right shapes at the right saturation, knowing when to blend colors, when not to.

Another really difficult one. Architecture is always a challenge (proportions!), and then once again it's really hard to see exactly what he saw in the foreground...obviously gondolas and such. Still, detail was not my main goal here.
