Rembrandt part I

From this picture of Rembrandt, "Self Portrait" from 1640 when he was 34 years old...


I had to make this version with charcoal on a 18 by 24in paper...

By other side I have to prepare a wood panel of the same size, cover with more than 10 coats of gesso and oil....
(Needless to say, I have no available my humble kitchen!)
Because I will paint with oils... I hope that it pass the quality control and let you know how this story end! hahahhah

Attraction & Reaction part 2


On a tracing paper I drew clothes and inked with brushes, then to photoshop to color it.
I didn't recived good comments about the inking this time, but I like it. I will consider them with the next one.

My First Ink ever!


A simple and fast draw (with some perspective issues) and inked with pens, brushes and Indian ink, a nice and relax experience very enjoyable. I need to improve, but I'm happy with my beginning.

Each 2mins. I took a photo during 3hrs. with my photo camera. Then I put these 100 images in sequence to finish with this little video. Enjoy a sunset in SF.
