This week's focus was ensuring we could combine our use of colour.
My approach was doing shadows in cooler tones and midtones in warmer colours.
Some initial problems I had were the eyes, it was hard to get a defined structure - another setback that didn't help were the pencils I used, I had a set of prismacolor, which are high quality, but I was a bit anxious to actually commit to any form definition due to the fact the pencil didn't erase easily, if at all.
But overall, when I started to plot in the colour and work my way through, I realised that adding higher contrast to the piece worked and it shows in the most recent result.
I would say overall, I am good at identifying colour and applying it, but the actual committing to placing down form and anatomy is a bit rocky and I would like to continue to improve this.
