Anyhow, as promised, work in progress shots of the piece I'm doing for the Springfield Mayor's Art Show in October. The piece is 20"x28" (roughly - art paper never seems to be evenly sized) on Colorfix paper.
The reference image - a photo of a dear friend who was sweet enough to do some modeling for me.
Because of the truly bizarre and yet intriguing angle of the photo, I had to graph the image to accurately transfer it. Not something I usually do (or particularly like doing) but I felt it was a necessary evil to get it quickly and accurately enlarged to the page.
Here we are about an hour after graphing. Mostly laid in the background, starting a bit of detailing here and there. It's going along quite well so far, I think, and I'm reminded just how much I LOVE Colorfix paper. It's a bit pricey but worth every penny.
More to come!
