I've added the foliage here, behind the figures and have finished the bricks in the wall
In this one I have added the first pale green wash to the figures, made from a mix of ultramarine and transparent yellow. This is a base for the stronger colour to come.
and in this one, I have added the first wash of viridian, which will give the statue a look of aged bronze.
The next picture you see will be the finished painting, because its just a matter now of adding another wash of viridian and touching up the shadows, where they need it. Oh, and deepening the pale red marble on which they sit. :)
Until tomorrow, then...

Great to see the steps! Can't wait to see the end result.
ReplyDeleteI am still thinking about how you did the shadows first, I'm going to try this approach myself, thanks!
Looking good, Pat:) Is this a new method you're trying or have you used this before ?
ReplyDeleteGlad you're all enjoying the process :)
ReplyDeleteMichael , everything on this painting I have done before, from painting shadows first (My Captain) to the yellow ochre and pale brickwork (Beyond the Door)
You can find them both on the blog search :) xx
It's awesome Pat. :) Really great concept and well done.
