Hello all, today I want to give you a "how to" about my techniques for painting skin tones using a photo reference. This is my first tutorial on here and I hope it will be of some benefit to you. I would also appreciate any feedback or anything you would like explained further.
Acrylic painting skin tone techniques using photo reference by Gabriel Tuxhorn |
This is from a painting I am currently working on and it is a portrait of a friend. I like to work from photos because it allows me to work when I want and not have to wait on a model.
Basic rundown of my process:
- pencil sketch
- block in lights and darks
- add light washes to color match
- continue with details to completion
This is a work in progress shot of the painting |
I hope that you enjoyed this brief tutorial about my process of painting with acrylic.
thank you for sharing
