@mattphilleo That was awesome Matt! Brought me back many moons ago when I used to do pencil portraits from snapshots and photos. This was one of my better ones.
I never quite got around to learning to use color. I realize the sketch in your video above is the foundation for a painting. It would be interesting to see some instruction and guidelines as to how one would begin to add color.
Thanks for this interesting and informative post!
Thanks, Passion-ground! I plan on posting more instructional videos on how to add color. In the meantime, tonight, I plan to post an acrylic portrait I did with several in progress pics of how it came to be. Is that you sketch?
My wife just walked by and said "Rhett!" :) Upvoted your comment here...have a great night!
Great Matt - I look forward to those... And yes, that's my sketch... I used a high quality black & white photo as a reference... Thanks for the upvote!
