Laurie, I love the beautiful simplicity of this composition. It’s a really lovely drawing. You are handling those overlapping petals nicely. I think you could push that 3-D form a little more by darkening the crescent-shape/core-shadow area some more, and maybe lightening up that main highlight a bit. I really like the point of view. It looks…[Read more]

The time difference caught up to me and this is late coming. I added shading to the interior of the flower – not sure if this is an improvement.

Hi Doug. I see that you have rendered a beautiful pear of the same variety I’m presently doing. Your colours seem so fresh and there is absolutely no smudgy toning that so many of my drawings have. I would love to get advice on how to achieve that freshness while giving the fruit a 3D feel.

Hi Patricia- these are great subjects! It looks like you have used earth green for the grisailles, which is a good choice. First off, a couple of things I would point out about the drawing. The drawing of the pear on the left looks quite different than the actual pear. The top of the actual pear is wider and I also do not see the bottom view of…[Read more]

I’m doing a similar pear next. May I ask what colour you used for the grisaille? Your pears are so beautiful!

Doug Milne commented on Hélène Chiasson's Photo 2 years ago
Hi Helene- this looks great! I don’t think you overdid the shading on that petal. You might consider using a green (earth green or a medium green) for the toning on yellow subjects rather than dark sepia, etc which will muddy yellow colors. You can certainly keep some highlights. I would add a little more toning on the petals in the well area a…[Read more]

Thank you for the comment Doug! I can see what you mean. I used an eraser to make the highlight more noticeable and it does look better now. I guess it’s ok to leave some area free of color, I was feeling like I had to “color” the entire piece.
