Work In Progress - Part 4
Some areas come together easily...some are a bit more tedious...but all in all things are progressing along just fine. Although, Benny now relies on “dad” to take him to the green belt for a 2-3 mile walk most days. He’ll be glad when this one is over.
Ben is pouting on the ottoman.
Below is an earlier picture when I was painting in the living room. The lighting changes so quickly in that room that I eventually had to resort to bringing the props to my studio and replicating the lighting in there.
FYI, the intended lighting for this still life scene is mid-Dec. at dawn, when there is no natural light in the room, only wall sconces lighting the scene from above and to the right. As you can see below, there was a lot of natural light coming in from the large windows behind me by the time I stopped painting for that day. Lighting is always a challenge when painting "plein air...even indoors" (ha) Controlled lighting in the studio was a must from this point on.
