I haven’t posted for a few days but I have been working hard
on my next burlesque painting for the vintage fair next month. I tried a
slightly different technique with this one, first creating the line drawing,
then roughing it in grey scale and finally applying colour. It’s made it a lot
easier to get the effect that I wanted.
I’m nearly happy with the body now and just need to spend
some time working on her face and hair. I also need to do something slightly more
exciting with the feathers in the background but I haven’t quite decided what
yet.
Oooo I like this! If I might suggest adding another row of feathers so they extend beyond the frame. Try that, otherwise not much else is needed :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Dawn :)
ReplyDeleteYou read my mind about the feathers. I've been working on it tonight and there's now loads of them! I've also removed the headress and replaced it with a hat and given her long hair :)
Beautiful.
