The base color sets a ground tone for creating hilights and shadows.<br /><br />These colors I layed down fairly thinned out so that I can see the pencil drawing underneath.<br /><br /><p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_V1NAosnvmUU/Sb_tI8_jgpI/AAAAAAAAAFc/Aztd6yJMLjE/s1600-h/photo-751746.jpg"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_V1NAosnvmUU/Sb_tI8_jgpI/AAAAAAAAAFc/Aztd6yJMLjE/s320/photo-751746.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314226823387906706" /></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30610287-6269532231482475294?l=tylergilbert.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Tyler Gilbertnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30610287.post-70013330948523985522009-03-17T11:33:00.001-07:002009-03-17T11:53:33.390-07:00Since I have a snazzy little iPhone, I figured I'd snap some process shots of the current painting and try my hand at blogging this creation.<br /><br />What you see in this photo is my drawing table with the watercolor paper stretched and mounted onto gator board.<br /><br />I took some reference photos of the tin snips (also pictured and handy for reference) and played with the composition and scale in photoshop until I set it up the way I wanted. I then printed out to final scale.<br /><br />The next step was to create a watercolor wash back ground, which is the paint you see on the board in this photo. I then created an under drawing in pencil over the water color background, then sprayed a clear coat over it to protect the water color paints from reactivating when I apply the acrylic paints.<br /><br /><p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_V1NAosnvmUU/Sb_tC6EDRYI/AAAAAAAAAFU/bzr8RuQmMKc/s1600-h/photo-727925.jpg"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_V1NAosnvmUU/Sb_tC6EDRYI/AAAAAAAAAFU/bzr8RuQmMKc/s320/photo-727925.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314226719522243970" /></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30610287-7001333094852398552?l=tylergilbert.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Tyler Gilbertnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30610287.post-36978216963779425352009-03-12T23:20:00.000-07:002009-03-12T23:23:34.577-07:001931 Chevy Coach; watercolor and goauche, 6"x9"<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_V1NAosnvmUU/Sbn7iJvpyBI/AAAAAAAAAFM/QBnHUWffJHI/s1600-h/Blue-31_20090311.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 292px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_V1NAosnvmUU/Sbn7iJvpyBI/AAAAAAAAAFM/QBnHUWffJHI/s400/Blue-31_20090311.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312553799610124306" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30610287-3697821696377942535?l=tylergilbert.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Tyler Gilbertnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30610287.post-68231044273203053132009-03-12T13:20:00.001-07:002009-03-12T13:22:20.460-07:00Final image.
