Hydrangea Harmony
12 x 12 Oil Painting
by Pat Fiorello
$550
Here's my latest painting. A smaller version of one I've done before from a favorite photo ,but executed with a totally different process.
Below is the progression of steps from start to the finished painting above.
 |
| Initial drawing |
 |
| On easel with photo |
 |
| Start massing in the darkest shape |
 |
| Then the next darkest shape |
 |
| Then the next value, the shadows of the flowers |
 |
| Added the background as another value slightly darker than the flower shadows |
 |
| Finally massed in the lightest shapes |
 |
| The original reference I was working from. Adjusted things a bit for compositional purposes. |
