2012.10.31 Mahogany (WIP)
Colored pencil and acrylic paint on paper.
About 3 hours so far.
Directly from shadows.
Limited palette: diarylide yellow, napthol red light, cobalt blue and titanium white only in the areas I'm unsuccessfully painting back out here - I've ended making this into a mixture of paper cut and painting because it was impossible to get back to the paper color with paint... It's very unusual for me not to use lots of white. More posts on this soon.
27.5 X 39 inches.
