After watching some video of a ‘real’ painter using a similar app i was inspired and quickly regretted,, to try my hand at drawing with color, in a painterly manor. I ended up with a soft-core porn glow and a less than appealing image. It could be tightened up significantly and since its digital can be re-worked infinitely so it could be saved although probably will not be.
So this morning on the train i decided to take a few steps back and used grey scale instead of color. Some of the issue i realized with the color is i rushed the sketch and block in phase. As i wanted to get a quick form to fiddle with. this morning i did a bit of a longer sketch, but was also aided by face familiarity as ive seen this guy many times before and have been fascinated by his extreme sprawling after reading his news paper.
Of course now i cant find any of the other versions of this guy ive drawn for comparison, ill dig/scan them up later.
