Small Oil


Oil
This started as an in-class assignment for an imaginary book cover. The title we had to illustrate was 'Lady of the Forest'. I wish I had just left it as the under painting in the translucent brown, because it really looked quite striking then. I will see if I still have the picture from then. However this version is growing on me.

I'm planning on neutralizing the bright green leaves and maybe adding a wash to the shadows to make them slightly less rust colored but still hold onto that neat translucent effect. This is on hold for now.
