I discover wed that I hav accidentally mixed a great skin tone!!!!!!!
Talk about distracted! I am painting with a purpose, working a composition and testing the pallette. All of a sudden I put the brush on the paper and I see skin tone-perfect! It's not completely mixed in and there is a bit of dark toned drag to the stroke aka cheekbone. Two hours later I come to when it hits me, my toes are near frostbitten as well as my nose and my sweet little dragon is gone and replaced by a very bad self portrait. However, to be fair I must say that at one point it was damn near perfect. Its so sad that I always have to go one step more, I move back a few steps to gain perspective and realize I have quite a likeness looking back at me but the nose or left eye is in need of a tiny shadow or another nmior detail. So I accomidate myself, but it never works! SO, Today, april 5 2008 will be the last time ever!!! The only one who will notice the infraction of structure is me. Imagine if I did this always I may have one or two finished works!!! It can always be better has no meaning in my art.
