Oil Sketch - Mrs. Parker




Here is my oil sketch from this afternoon's open studio session. Our model had this gorgeous complexion and amazing eyes. I was working with the more limited palette but added a bit of cyan at the end. Just a wild hair, I guess! I'll get this whole photoshop thing down one day. This one, to me, still looks too yellowish. Perhaps it's just my monitor.

Anyway, today I was concentrating on skin tones, though I think the likeness is passable, not great. If I had more time I would have liked to spend more measuring and comparing features. I ended up only having a little over two hours to work on this. It's snowing like crazy here and everyone was running late to the studio.

Hope everyone's having a great weekend!
