This is what it looks like after another pass with color and value. I mixed a purple and added it to the shadow side and to some shadows on the light side. I then added a mixed a yellow orange brown (similar to a burnt sienna but a little more golden yellow). I painted this over the cool yellows on the dog and into the lighter areas on the shadow side of the dog. I painted the dog collar blue. I then splattered the entire piece with the blue, purple and the mixed brown color. I used a paper towel to lighten any splatters that were in a bad spot or seemed distracting. I am happier with the values and textures of this as an under painting. |
