Master Copies: J. C. Leyendecker, Albert Herter and Norman Rockwell

Image
I love to dig in and see how artists worked in the past and extract and use some of their techniques.  Master Copying has always been a part of learning as a student. Peter Paul Rubens did over 450 copies in his illustrious career. I try to do at least one every 6 months or so,  so here are a few Master Copies that I've done over the past few years. J. C.

Color Wheel/Color Theory

Image
Last year I was able to work on doing a color wheel with Carlos Madrid. Carlos studied color theory with Michael Aviano for a few years. He had me come to his studio and work with him once a week over a 3 month span. I started by creating a value scale, based off of the Munsell Color System. From there I worked to get the color as accurate as I could, and worked mixing the lightest colors to the darkest colors. The end result of my color wheel represents the highest chroma of each color. After working the highest chroma, I then went and created a value string of each color, using my value scale. In the end I have a very valuable color wheel that I use when painting still life's.

I wanted to share some more work in progress shots of a painting that I've nearly completed. Here are the abbreviated steps: 1: Poster Study These are essential! With form painting sometimes its hard to see the big picture. Working on a smaller 5 x 7 or 6 x 8 can help you see the bigger forms and then you can reference this poster for you final painting. 2. Setup Having a good setup is key to making a good painting. Notice how I blocked out the light and have one  light directed on my setup but a separate light on my painting. The light is also over the top of me so that the cast shadows from my arm and brush don't fall across my surface when painting. 3. Transfer Drawing: I do a Oil transfer (put paint on the back of a printout of my drawing and go over the top of my printout with a pen to transfer lines [think carbon paper]), and then use Raw Umber to build my values before going in with color. This will guide me for the next step and als...
