Clouds again, now I am happy

A different technique from the same book as the previous cloud painting. I like the results of this one a lot more. Not much else to say really. I learned to blend outward in a circular motion. I also learned to place a little paint and water on my brush when lifting out color: this will inject a little bit of color back into the area.

No more cloud-centric paintings...for a while anyway. Promise.

Trying out a challenge to myself - to create "finished" pieces with a limited color palette on a consistent schedule. I am still working out the final guidelines. I think I would like to challenge myself to use a new texture in each piece as well. I've had this unfinished sketch in my sketchbook forever. Even though I'm not entirely happy with it - it feels great to finally have it done!

A Competent Profile

As I start to become more familiar with proportions and measurements for the various faces I attempt to draw, I am starting to wonder how to make a more complete portrait with my limited time. Do I stick to lines? Do I bring a brush and some ink? Which lines should I include? Which shapes are important to represent? Maybe this is a good time to look at the work other artists have done and try to work out some of their methods.
