And here’s another progression, showing the
development of colour, structure and light.
This is the scariest time of all, when you have to plunge in with lots of paint and try & make black horses out of that flat drawing on a piece of flat white paper (300lb Fabriano by the way). My heart just pounds when this is happening, and it’s more fun than anything ever! I paint with the 3 primary colours, so like I said, black can be tricky. I layer as little as possible, & as you can see, I’m trying to get enough paint in there on the first attempt. Stick around!
