The Return of the Green Nude

Just in case you thought I’d forgotten about this… I haven’t. It has been back-burnered a bit over the past few days while I try to make sense of the files on my backup drive.

As you can tell, I put the spheres in. I like the sort of “stair-step” effect that gives. …Painted the white form on the upper left orange and spent some time modeling stuff with Naples Yellow Light. …Toned down the “psychedelic” greens…

I liked the orange form before it was orange. Right now, I’m a little irritated with it. I think it throws things out of the composition. I should be able to fix that with lighting though. The color definitely needs some work as well.

I think that a few of the elements in this are starting to work pretty well… the mottled look of the large form on the upper right, the form that fades into the distance below it, etc. I have a pretty good idea of the way things need to go… some blueish forms, shadows, rendering and so on…

🙂 We’ll see what happens.

Colors: Sennelier’s Naples Yellow Light and Rembrandt’s Cadmium Red Light and Cadmium Orange.
