Location of a plein air study.
The result of the study. This painting failed miserably. My professor has coined a term MSB: Murky Shit Brown. I tried to paint in the shade, and I felt like I was consistently second guessing myself. Must do more!
To try and redeem my earlier attempt at painting, I decided to do a study of the undergraduate studio. I'm actually kind of happy with this one. It is obviously not perfect by any means but I think it's heading in the right direction.
I did spend around five hours on this study, and there was consistent lighting, and good conversation.
Painting! About an hour an half study. The light changed a lot on this painting from when I started, which explains the difference between the painting and what's seen in the photograph. I would still get moments with intense sunlight so I decided to keep that initial scheme. This may have undermined the quality of the final study.
Also on a side note, I was charged by a ground hog while working on this painting. I was unaware that I was around an entrance to his home. I love being around ducks, geese, and ground hogs while painting. It would be difficult to do anything more enjoyable.
Any comments or critiques are more than welcome. Thanks!
