Recently I did some two figures studies, here is one of them. I don't feel it's harder than one figure, but I need to think faster and paint faster because the time for the painting is as same as one figure.
Fongwei Enjoyed this and many others on your blog…what palette combination are you using for your flesh tones? Hard to tell with my monitor…also do have anywhere on your blog where it shares your process in painting the figure? mike
I just replied you by email, and I have my answer here again:
Some artist may have a combination for flesh tones, but I don't. I think any object in different environment will appear as different color, even painter's mood will effect to painter's feeling... so I just paint the color's relationship (worm and cool).
Generally, I have two red, two blue, two yellow on my palette, one darker one lighter, one warmer one cooler. For example, Cadmium red vs Alizarin Crimson.
I don't have the process on my blog, but I may think about that, thank you for asking!
I came from China and live in San Francisco bay area now.
I got my BFA from China, MFA from Academy of Art University in San Francisco, and now I am on the graduate-school faculty at the school.
Please enjoy my blog, and I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions about my painting. I really hope my work can bring you a piece of happiness today.
