I just started last night what I'm calling "Chameleon Carapace"--I've always thought of myself as both a shy, prudent snail and a capricious, unpredictable chameleon. They sound incongruous, don't they? So, I thought--wouldn't it be cool to bring those two ideas together in a painting?
Here's the concept sketch:
Here's the sketch put to canvas and a glimpse of my workspace, which is...uh...cluttered.
Here is the first stage of the painting. It all worked out in the end, but I learned that it is unwise to do a wash in a undependable color like purple and also don't use any linseed oil...
Until next time!
P.S. Will try to get better at photographing my work... :\
