In my quest to become more proficient on mylar, I'm tackling a Rembrandt. He's the perfect choice because well...it's Rembrandt! And the impasto and painterly qualities lend themselves to mylar very well. I started out by putting down a layer of conté and then gradually erasing out of it. Above is the progress shot, I'll post updates as I go.
hi there ccb, nice drawings you've got there but i would like to see some more of them.my thought is that you like to draw mostly from photos and not from a live model...am i correct?drawing from live models can get you farther in your art,i also do works with photo reference but only in the absence of live models.keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteNo no no, you got it all wrong. I mostly draw from life. Doing master copies is part of learning the craft. I did a drawing based on a photo to demonstrate that you can do it without a grid, it was a tutorial. That's one of my youtube videos. But yeah it's mostly from life actually! If I didn't draw from life...I'd have no art. This is my website: http://www.geocities.com/ccb_332/index.html
ReplyDeleteYou can see more work there. Thanks for commenting!
