Rebecca...8x10/oil on panel Sketch

This is just a quick sketch I did for fun today. It was taken from a black and white photo I have, so I tried to make up the colors as an exsperiment. It was fun to paint.

Finished! 8x10'' Oil on panel ''Vintage Iron''

Done. Took me a day and a half. This method may not be for everyone, but it works for me. Have questions? Ask me. Hope this was fun for you to see my process.

More tweaking...

Keep working it...

Step 8~ Tweaking

Now it gets fun. I just start refining and building thin to thick. No light highlights yet. It's hard for me not to detail it at this point.

Step 7~apply thin color

I start painting now and lay in thin color all over.

Step 6~lay in bg color

Here I refine the background a little more,when I start to put in color I don't want that toned board to throw me off.

Palette~and linseed oil for my medium

My refs

This is my reference. I take a photo and put it up on my computer and have the object in front of me also.

Step 3~darken darks

I darken where my darks will build- still in the underpainting phase here.

Step two~

I paint dark tones where the darks will go and a thin back ground color.

Drawing on gessoed toned board.

This is my first step in prepping my paintings.
