Ok blog. I'll square with you. I don't always do what I say I'm going to do. Hence, last night. We had a late night out and so, there was no painting. But fear not. As a testiment to my dedication to this blog and art in general, I still drew. I worked on the baby portrait. I only worked on the hands because I was exhausted. It took probably 30 minutes to complete the hand closest to the face. Fingers are hard. They always end up looking like hot dogs or misshapen sticks. I'm not sure why this is... For the hand I used 3 different pencils, 3B, 8B and 6B and lightened areas up with the kneade
d eraser. I like how it turned out, I think it looks how it should and I also think that I made it just the right darkness. I may have to make aspects of the face darker like hair and eyelashes just so the hand doesn't take all the focus. It won't take very long to get this one finished. The clothes have no pattern on them and just have a few wrinkles here and there. Today I get off of work at 9, which doesn't leave me much time to paint, so I'll draw some more on the down times at work. I'll lay the grid for the painting when I get home.
