Colour studies 1

I’ve had a few things come up so updates temporarily slowed down a little. These are little studies I do from photographs (mainly national geographic) for colour and painting practice. Each of these is about 25% of original size.

Another jungle paint study

Time for some art!

Jungle paint study

This is a paint study I did using a national geographic photo as reference. As you can tell I really like jungles, but this one was mainly done to study atmosphere. I find these can also help with finding new painting techniques, and of course better understanding of subject.

Jungle – paint study

Have to keep my blog updated and strive to make it interesting to visit; hence forth I will be posting doodles and general stuff I do (like paint studies)! So today I’ll get the ball rolling with a jungle paint study I did. Started off with a reference photo, though I got carried away a bit. Few hours, photoshop, used ref. (click to enlarge)

I do these to study different subject matter, try new colour pallets and also test my painting techniques. Hope you like it .
