watercolor on paper, 8" x 8" |
This is a progress shot--but I like where it's headed. Putting an unfinished work (or actually, one that I think is finished) on the computer screen is always a help to me. Things that looked alright on the drafting table pop right out as mistakes things that need further attention.
Some mouth adjustments, a bit of eyeball reworking, and a full head of hair ought to make this girl glow.
Incidentally...
* The reference photo was taken by my son, on a rock climbing expedition at Minnewaska State Park Preserve in the beautiful Shawangunks (/SHON-gums/. Really.) of Upstate New York. The "Gunks" are popular with rock climbers and throughout the summer and fall, if you look up in the right direction, you are apt to see a line of people clinging to the rock face.
