Life Drawing: Gouache Portrait

This morning was a stressful one as our model canceled at the last minute but luckily we were able to get a great model at short notice.

Again it seems like I’m not getting a good separation between the light and dark side of the face. The model setup at the studio has the model lit by one spot light but there is a lot of bleed of the overhead florescent lights as well. I’m thinking that this bleed of light is leading to some value confusion and the cool greens and blues that I see in the shadows. The next model that we have that is clothed I’m going to have to take a photo for comparison.
