6:44 PM: k, my 14 year old mentee, came to the studio this afternoon and continued work on his self protrait. i watched as he spent time mixing his colors with a touching amount of care and attention to detail. the result shows it.
il torrente at the end of my painting day today
1:53 PM: both yesterday & today I had time considerations that made it necessary for me to work in short bursts, which i found very interesting. it is what it is, and that’s it for today!
so if you remember where it was at yestarday, you’ll notice that today i did some work on the lower portion of the painting, making it clearer that we’re looking at an ice bound creek.the blue of the water was also added, further modifying the starkness of the image as it looked yesterday. BELOW are the comparative images of yesterdays & todays versions, with two details of todays version on row 2.
