noah's artcamp 2.1

week 2 is now coming to an end; we had to make color studies, one full master study and... imaginative color studies. This was hard after feeling good about studying the masters since the whole picture was already figured out; coming back to your own imagination and your own skills is hard. But still fun :) I made 26 quick sketches, sometimes 10-15 minutes, and 2 of them 30-1h trying to figure out some good way to arrange the colors. Very painful when you stuck to value drawings for so long :D anyway, put on some good music, forget the difficulties and go painting!

studies (some kazuo oga, rockwell, jaime jones, thomas moran, jean leon gerome, waterhouse, sargent, ilya repine... )
