I built up the values pretty quickly here, I was trying to preserve the cool to warm/blue to orange and keep things loose, I was trying to choose my hard and soft edges and keep a sense of spontaneity. I've been often accused of missing some good stopping places, but when I'm enjoying a painting it can be very hard to stop.<br />
This painting will be on display at the Society of Illustrators from June 9th-August 15th.

Here are 5 steps for this latest demo, the issue with these demos tends to be not to over do them in terms of finish, keep them loose, move them quick. it's a question of sorting out the major values and working the whole painting up at the same time.Stephen Gardnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09524521194226363882noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4710962761857009360.post-81349642329726620402015-03-21T13:19:00.000-07:002015-03-21T13:19:26.397-07:00Finish<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
