Portrait


Wanted to show the progression of a portrait I am working on. Here is the beginning of a 24 x 30 oil portrait of two brothers. I apply a wash of Viridan green, and then draw with a brown colored pencil the image. I am using a photograph as source and enlarging.
Typically, I apply a grid to the small photo and a grid to the canvas to scale before drawing.
