This image shows the final result of the painting process.
The background is warmer now with more yellow ochre. The branch was also added. I painted the branch in
several layers. I painted the whiskers in yellow ochre with a very thin brush. The right side (as you view it) has
more burnt umber in the whiskers than the left which has a little white. This is due to the light that falls
from the right. Finally, I added shadows on the yellow of the eye and created the sparkle in both eyes to bring out more life. This site also offers a program written in Flash that teaches you how to draw pencil portraits from photographs. You can view a small demo of the program. It's well worth it! View the demo program. |
