Studio Time

Yesterday’s was a short session due to Father’s Day festivities. I did manage to pretty much resolve the structure of this thing. Aside from a few small changes, it’s basically ready to paint. 🙂 …Shadowing, rendering, color and so on. This is the pleasant part where I can just basically get lost in things, listen to Americana or Jazz and fiddle with colors and forms.

Colors in yesterday’s session are: Sennelier’s raw umber, carbon black and titanium white for the greys and Naples yellow for some of the modeling. The oranges are Winsor Newton’s cadmium scarlet and Rembrandt’s cadmium orange.

Oh, I still had the lights and camera set up from yesterday. A couple of shots and a few twists on the polarizing filter were enough to get this image. It’s still sort of weird shooting in near dark.
