Dear painters, art aficionados, and art explorers everywhere. I would never have guessed this journal would keep my interest for so long! Join me as I learn about the processes of painting, drawing and at times, the history of art.

Painting Dad, progression Day 1

Ever since I did Mom's portrait, I wanted to make its mate, my Dad!
 ...and finally it is on the easel.



Ok, here is the beginning - the sketch with charcoal.



Set with an alcohol wash. 
I like how the charcoal sketch sets the values for me...which I hope to follow with the paint.
