Portrait of Latoya

Charcoal on paper

My second portrait in charcoal!  This is a young lady who I work with and what a wonderful model she made!!  I really appreciate that she sat for me.  Of course I'm so slow at this point I had to use a photograph of her but it turned out so well and a perfect likeness!!  Process done with use of comparative measuring and plumb lines.

Now I'm finally ready to try oil painting.  That is the next step in this process of classical training.  Once values, edges, shapes, and proportion are mastered the next thing is color.
