Many people have asked me in the past how do you achieve the vibrancy & ecality in your work? BREAK IT DOWN @ EVERY STAGE. One object is composed of many small shapes and sizes!
My Version
Original
- 9 flower petals
- 6 leaves 26 PARTS
- 5 hand areas (wrist, 3 fingers)
- + 3 including nails
- 3 extras ---------------------------------------------------------------------- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- As a new artist I suggest that any photography is broken into sections
- If so, nine parts wont be overwhelming
- When areas are small the artists eye will be more aware of small details such as dark shadows or dark colors fading into light tones (of the same color) such as the rim of the finger blending into the outer rim of the finger that is almost a clear glow
- EG: Underneath a nail of a finger is a dark tone that resembles an orangeny colour that does not follow skin tone
A Close Up
On the petals there is a shimmer of dark blue that darkens at the folds within the flower and lightens to white that expands to the end of the petals
To highlight the folds within the petals dark blue was used so that there is a sense of movement and flow for each individual petal
To make a difference between forground and backround dark blue was used with a mix of darker shades.... less white was visible
Wherever light hits thats where the color is the darkest... eg: in the center of the flower following outwords, the creases in each petal, and the back petals
At times it may be neccesary to go back on a dry canvas and add the same color at the same area so that the ridge or crease can be accented...if not it may not be as noticable due to the fact that it is one netural dark blue
blue used with blue = shows no constrat/neutral and monotone
or
blue used with dark blue = shows constrat
white + 1st tone/2nd tone/3rd tone/4th tone/5th tone = a guide of colors
On the thumb the darker shade is more on the rim of the finger and lightens as the color follows up words....exposing a white glow!
Caramel/Yellow is used for the creases in the fingers
