Showing posts with the label youth

Trust

Trust watercolor on cold press paper 24 x 32 cm I can't believe the month of March has flown by me... I have worked on this painting slowly throughout the month. It is from a photo kindly provided by artist friend Karen Duncan , painted with permission. I do not have extensive experience with horses, by the little opportunities I have been given, I have noticed that they are very sensitive animals. It must be a great feeling to have a bond with such an animal, to earn their trust is surely a beautiful thing.   before adding paint  Thank you for visiting and taking the time to view my work!

Value study of an Indian Youth

"Indian Youth" watercolor on paper 29 x 20 cm/11".5 x 8 in. This is a step-by-step demonstration done in values of gray from Painting Watercolor Portraits that Glow   by Jan Kunz . This young man looks so beautiful and proud in his ceremonial dress. I wish I could match the ideas in my head with more skill in my hand.  I will try and do more studies like these in the future. I liked illiminating color and just focusing on the values and light.
