Day 8 (Speed Paintings #8 and.. a half?)

Alright.. tried doing 2 this evening.

#8:

Speed Painting 0008

Had major issues with flesh colors - hot sun flesh shadows = should be MUCH more red and deep than I took it. Ran out of time, I think I finally stopped at 33 minutes (technically 3 minutes over).


THEN - I tried to do a 2nd speed painting tonight..

Speed Painting 0009 : INCOMPLETE - Photoshop Crash

and THIS HAPPENED.
EUGH.  Thank you Photoshop.


I went for the color picker and these white windows happened instead.  I had 5 minutes left. I had a lot left to do anyway.. again, time getting away from me.  This is a really zoomed in view of the speed painting.


My process lately breaks down to:

- choose a medium value to fill the page
- do a quick sketch of the major elements
- start painting


We'll see how tomorrow goes :)
