This is the first stage of the painting Im working on at the moment, I’m making a detailed step by step process tutorial, taking photos and filming a timelapse video as well. I like this first drawing stage it requires concentration, to get the right proporsions. There are different methods, to achieve likeness, the one I used here is to put a few accurate guiding points then just connect the dots. I used a roughly tinted canvas with raw sienna to get a bright start, and a red colored pencil to draw this.
