Session #029, Work #022

Working on drawing and following Anthony Ryder’s book still. The “envelope” and the “block-in” are progressing very naturally, I’m liking this process more and more.

Overview

Still drawing, still working on this fairy figure.

The more I work at it the more I improve, as long as I take my time and measure everything several times. I plan on working further with this painting and constantly refining the drawing until it is as perfect as I can get with a paintbrush.

Keepsake, Oil, Still Life

Chris Beaven

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.
