Stuff that I don't like too. Still struggling with light, I also started getting too outliney in some areas and I screwed up the hair. It just doesn't quite "pop" either. I'm still not paying close enough attention to values. More practice!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6458108888593977387-2145735732385019931?l=mylesenglish.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Myleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12115816516746982524noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458108888593977387.post-69209712785703334792009-10-08T17:42:00.000-07:002009-10-08T18:18:05.988-07:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1kJ5jFXJ5ZM/Ss6Juz5lt5I/AAAAAAAAAQo/1wbKXZ-4PEM/s1600-h/sargent+study2+copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 247px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_1kJ5jFXJ5ZM/Ss6Juz5lt5I/AAAAAAAAAQo/1wbKXZ-4PEM/s320/sargent+study2+copy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390397241307805586" /></a><br />As some of you may have noiticed, I've deleted all my old posts. I'll only be posting studies, paintings and drawings from life or reference here from now on.<br /><br />Anyway, to kick things off, here's a sargent study. I'm planning on doing several of these digitally, then moving on to oils. I'm also planning to spend at least this year studying Sargent, as well as a handfull of other 19th/early 20th century artists like Bouguereau, Eakins, Boldini, Waterhouse, Ingres etc. I'm going to try to get a hold of some Bargue plates to do some copies from as well.<br /><br />Anyway, I spent about 5 hours on this today. I could spend at least 5 more on it, but I think I"ve learned what I will from it already. Also, no tracing or color picking...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6458108888593977387-6920971278570333479?l=mylesenglish.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Myleshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12115816516746982524noreply@blogger.com7
