Jana 6x4 oil sketch


These last 2 sketches were very quick without a lot of fuss.  Good exercise to work out compositional ideas.  Desaturated to look at values.

I like these very much...these studies. I think doing the quick value studies, like you said with no fuss, is so helpful. Doesn't it remove so much of that pressure to make a 'finished' piece?!

Looking at these makes me want to attempt a figure...

Karen , It really takes the pressure off. Try it.
