NAT GEO Project: Progress Shot 8

Haven't worked on this one in a while, but I got some new paint and brushed, so I thought I would tonight. I touched up a lot of the area on the cheek and around the eye. I also painted on the mustache and worked on the nose some. There is still a lot to be done, but I hope to finish this week.

NAT GEO Project: Picture 3; Progress Shot 1

This was the beginning of the third and final picture for the project. I think this was done sometime last week. This picture is differs from the others in that it is in black and white. 

NAT GEO Project: Picture Two; Progress Shot 1

Haven't posted anything in a couple weeks, but this was the beginning of the second picture for this project. I would guess that I did this like last week. Doesn't really look anything like the picture, so hopefully it gets better.

This is from yesterday. I added some darker tones of the orange and white mixture as well as some purple to the face and hands in an attempt to provide some dimension.

This is from sometime earlier this week. I did a little revision on the hand and parts of the face; adding a lighter tone of the orange and white mixture to the right side of the hand and face.

NAT GEO Project: Progress Shot 5

This is from sometime last week. I added a mixture orange and white paint to the majority of the man's face and hand. I also painted the man's iris. To do so I used a mixture of oranges, greens, and touches of white.

NAT GEO Project: Basic Outline

The first bit of progress made after gesso-ing the paper and selecting the pictures was getting a rough outline of the major areas of the pictures to be painted. Next step, paint!
