I was excited to do a pastel, and put my brushes down for a while. So I took one of the references most everyone liked, to play with, from my
"First Formal" thread in resource photo critiques.
Please note this is in progress, and is not finished. Comments are welcome and I thought it would be interesting to get opinions of the roughed in gloves and the "whiteness" leading to how they work with a three-value composition.
I would consider this a figurative piece as opposed to a portrait.
Thanks,
Beth
