Continuing the online mentorship with Rosso Crimson. This month we worked on paler skin tones and the overall palette, the colours we’ve used for skintones throughout the course are:
- Titanium white
- A pre-mixed blue-grey
- Yellow ochre
- Naples yellow
- Cadmium red
- Alizarin crimson
- Indian red
- Ivory black
Time was limited this month due to other commitments so I did a quick sketch, oil on paper, just to get some more practice in mixing and painting faces. As you can see I didn’t completely like two of them. The expression on the middle one was quite intriguing so she survived. As an underpainting this was quite successful….and with more time I would work on the lighter tones.
