This image is a computer representation of a printing press image representing the real colors.Īt one time during 2000 to 2002, Winsor & Newton sent actual painted samples of watercolors and gouache to see the real colors on real paper.

Below is the color sheet by Gamblin showing these colors. shows a color study of oil paints made for my observation of the real thing. Composition is important in all fields.ĭrawing, painting and photography are all primarily about seeing carefully and in specific detail. So far, I have not discussed the subject. Photography is also one of my areas of interest. If sensitive to colors and their combinations, look at alternatives as well, especially in portraiture. This is particularly true in photography where the person's hair is dark and the background is dark or visa versa. The distinction of the two blend into one. What is there that will detract from the work? See any telephone poles or wires running through your subject? Especially check where a dark subject is against a dark background.
So with a good composition with wonderful lighting, look closely now, not at the subject, but at the background and foreground. What if you move a bit to either side? How would the shadows and light improve the subject? What about moving on the opposite side?

The paper size is estimated at 22" x 15" based upon museums which give sizes of his other drawings.įor more of his drawings and paintings see Humanities Web.įor details and lessons on the production of his drawings see Rebecca Alzofon's Studio Also, the amount of time required to execute the drawing and the patience of the model was remarkable. What amazes me most of all is the exquisite and accurate drawings. In the enlargement at the right the subtle definitions of the musculature of the back and shoulder are accurately rendered with the delicate highlights and a gradation of shades. Lighting the figure from both sides accentuates the shapes within the form. Some areas are solid black as in the deepest recess of the arm against the body, the eye lashes, and particular areas of the hair.Īlso notice the second lighting source from the left at mid level which gives form to the otherwise shaded and shadowed areas. He also uses an under value of smudged black or white to enhance the values with the hatching drawn over it. Unlike most cross hatching, he draws his lines parallel to the surface adding description of the direction of the slope of the surface.
