RE: My First Still Life of The Year. From its Development to Completion.
Wow, stunning work @jameszenartist. Great to see all the processes you go through as an artist. I can imagine the ribbon part was especially hard to work on, catching all the different sections of light. Keep it up. Following and resteemed, can't wait to see what else you produce.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! Surprisingly enough, the ribbon was one of the easiest and fun parts to work on. To tell you the truth, the most difficult task was keeping my darks clean, unified, and from continually sinking in. So with this in mind, I can't stress enough in working methodically, instead of randomly all over the place. So when you oil out, you have to do it in sections so that if it sinks in and it will, it'll be okay as you know the values were correct when you painted it.
I can assure you there's going to be more great stuff so stay tuned! ;)
