Last night I started working on the paint, starting with the face and hair. The hair still needs a few more layers for detail, but is blocked in and serves to represent the color and value of the area. Next, I painted the apple, then the shoes. I finished the night painting the ruler.
Today, I applied a wash of orange across the blouse, and another wash of black across the skirt. I repeated these washes to build up the depth and detail in each. The next step was to apply the textured gesso to the skin areas, and since the skin will be darker, I added a bit of burnt sienna to the mix. The downside of adding color to the clear gesso is all the brush strokes show. So, the skin doesn’t look pretty at the moment, but it’ll all get covered by the oil pastels soon enough…
