Well going out to work with the ladder on cutting back my pine tree, so thought I better post while I had all limbs in working order.
This is what I've gotten done this week on Abby and am not really happy about it at this point. Lost my momentum after being out of pocket for two weeks. I have put in the base on the right side of the face, and need to do more detail and mid-tone work, will continue on through tomorrow but she might get scrapped and I might start her again. Goal was to do a graphite realistic portrait prelim and then try to do her in color, so might just go to that route and move on to color. Will have to see, but am concerned if I don't resolve it here I will just carry the issue forward.
Was trying to just blend in my usual method and then got going in circularism and erasing, and now I feel she is somewhat overworked as I went dark and light probably too many times.
Good practice on her blonde hair - started with the left background and will definitely bring that up to medium. I like the left side of the face, it's the right that I am not pleased with and might just be around the eye area - think I'll erase it out and try whole socket again.
