Living Room: Drawing Refinement

For the next few sessions I will be refining the drawing for this painting.

This step is by far the most important part of the painting. Establishing accurate drawing sets the foundation for the rest of the painting. If I get the drawing incorrect here then the rest of the painting will fail.

I may also add some value indications to the drawing, but not too thickly I don’t want the graphite to effect the oil paint added over.

I'm an artist on a mission to do at least 30 minutes of art every single day for the rest of my life and track that progress on my website for all to see. I'm past the 10 year mark and I'm still going strong. Now it's time to give back and help other artists create a life long habit of creating.
