Captive Son
Steven,
I'll work on my values this weekend - sounds very moral. I agree with your observations. I've been sitting looking at the picture for a catatonic time and generally think that the shadows behind the figure could be much darker. The lightness that is currently there (where the floor meets the wall) was probably caused by the window (see source photo). I believe that working on the values of the shadows and the shirt will give me a direction for the face - which as you know I have not been quite pleased with. For example the value of the extreme right of the face near the ear is almost the same as the right cheek. I might give the facial values more variations in the hope that the face takes on more form. I'll try and work on it in the next few days and post the results of my efforts next week.
