Decided to try out something different this time with one of my figure gesture studies.. This piece pretty much evolved organically with the different media added according to what was called out for as the piece progressed!

Hiya! So if ya haven't seen my latest fb or insta posts you may not have spied my latest conceptual drawing yet. Drawn with contouring colour pencil crosshatching and charcoal pencil on dark suede coloured paper, this piece is also accented with silver and gold metal leaf!  Binary Movement / Colour Pencils, Charcoal Pencil & Silver / Gold Metal Leaf on ​Murano Pastel Paper (160g/m, 45% cotton content). / Size: (8.5 x 12.45 Inches) x 2 Check out how this piece was created on my blog post
'Binary Movement' Charcoal and Colour Pencil Drawing WIP' See ya! Thanks for the visit!.. :)  'Tangy Cream' / Conte Pencil, Charcoal, Ink and White Acrylic on Shellac Sized Archival Paper. /Size: 10.2 x 10.2 Inches Private Collection
Using a Sepia Light Conte Pencil, the figure was drawn, making sure the 'quality of line' was good as this drawing would be seen in the completed piece. The acrylic primed rough watercolour paper was a great surface to work on. Once I was satisfied with the drawing, the shadows were given a wash of Chinese Black Ink ( there is just a unique luminous quality to chinese ink and I love using it whenever possible ).
To help get my bearings I now went in with the lightest light I planned for the piece. A splash of white acrylic (with a touch of raw umber) carved out the structure of the man's head and shoulder. Though I had a rough idea where I wanted the white to go, I was always aware of how the composition was developing as I was applying it and adjusting accordingly. For example, I had planned to paint down over the man's left shoulder more, but then the drip happened and looked so good I had to leave it. Acrylic dries fast so decisions had to be made quickly. With the lights and darks established I went in with a little more detailing for the figure with white chalk, charcoal and the sepia light pencil. I had to be careful not to do too much or risk losing the mood of the piece.. Had to say adieu to this one today. I was surprisingly sadder than usual to see a piece go. I was quite pleased at successfully achieving just the exact glowing emerald hue I had envisioned for the snake and this was also my first attempt at trying a new crosshatching technique with the oil paint too.. Despite this I could not feel more blessed with whom she is on her way to right now!.. Thank you so much for making a home for two!.. :) More info on how this piece was created etc. at 'Original Sin Rebirth'  'Original Sin Rebirth' / Medium: Oil and Silver Metal Leaf on Primed Canvasboard / Size: 5.1 x 7.4 Inches SOLD  Hi guys!, This little piece is done finally after a few failed attempts. With it being so tiny, the crosshatched strokes I wished to create at first were coming out a little too thick and clumsy, but each time I just rubbed it down and started again.. I think it came out well in the end!..  'Backlite' / Oil & Silverleaf on Canvasboard / Size: 3.1 x 3.4 Inches SOLD Check out the WIP for this piece at: Testing DIY Silverleaf Sealant, Size & Colour Palettes. I've been testing out different colour palettes for my figurative work lately 'Twilight' being the latest. I quite like the prussian blue based hues in this one, especially how well it plays off the complementary raw umber in the background.
