So – to be honest, this sketch is just a test of my shiny new setup for recording paintings. New overhead mount and wireless remote control for Laurel’s DSLR, new microphone for voice over, and coincidentally – Adobe has some new software called Premiere Rush – made for editing quick and easy jobs like this.
Remarkably, with that many new pieces of technology, I was still able to record, edit and publish this today! Frankly, I’m amazed :)
Here’s the painting :)
And a few closeups of areas I like!
Scraping with scissors.
Wet-into-damp. (Indigo + Olive Green into watery Indgio + Titanium White)
A little area with calligraphic brushwork from a splayed out old sable. Old sables never die! They just get better at painting foliage.
