sorta. I don’t know recently I have felt really pessimistic about
my work and work habits. I’m going to probably relate this back to my
recent personal problems. However today after a lot of battling I’ve
managed to get back into a better work flow. I’m hoping to catch up on
all the recent stuff that wasn’t up to scratch.
Talking about getting back into the habit here's this weeks speedy.
ON TIME.
This one was just under 40 mins, I decided to do some still life objects as it was something I was told I needed to improve on and after building up my confidence with portraits I though it was about time.
I am most pleased with the skull but this is mostly likely because i spent the most time on it. I went about painting this in a different way that usual. I actually started by planning out the objects on the table first, which shows I think. I used negative space to get a good feel for the silhouette and shapes too. and didn’t start painting til I felt relatively happy with the overall picture.
I am a little bit disappointed with the rendering techniques but I suppose this is because of the time limit I set myself and how I distributed my time. Although I didn’t enjoy this as much as my portraits I am going to continue doing still life for a couple of weeks in order to improve my rendering techniques. I will start to back up my speedies with prelim sketches too.
