Re: 17 ... with a nose ring - WIP

Like others, I was first attracted to the posting because of the "17" plus "nose ring", wondering if others had rebellious daughters, too! Bray, your work is incredible! I particularly think the color, value contrasts, and composition are spot-on and exciting. Looking forward to the development of this work! Thanks for sharing!

Re: 17 ... with a nose ring - WIP

Sorry the WIP is taking so long ... not enough time in a day anymore

Margarete - Thanks again! Should have more to show over the next few evenings.

Cyntada - Thanks!! The shadow on the ground is dark - but it will pale in comparison to the intake on the mig.

Artcat369 - Funny you mention rebellious daughters ... mine has grown out of hers (mostly) however, I was thinking about her when I came up with this title - Thanks for the kind words!!

Re: 17 ... with a nose ring - WIP

Very interesting WIP - thank you for sharing.
Yes, I was very much "attracted" by your tidy working place, too. If I had
ever seen such tidyness in my room.....

Waiting to see more of the picture

Oh, I almost missed this. Thanks for posting a WIP. I find it always interesting to see the process and I always enjoy seeing the painting emerge from the paper...

Re: 17 ... with a nose ring - WIP

WOW--this is wonderful. My dad did aeronautical/aerospace technical
illustration, but not in watercolor! Don't know how you kept those red nose
edges so clean, but I'm just learning. It's fascinating watching you work.
Thanks!

Karen F.

Re: 17 ... with a nose ring - WIP

Doug - Thanks!!

Fidgement - no worries ... I've shortened the title to just "Nose Ring" ...

Karen - Thanks for the comments!!

Here's the last installment for this WIP - sorry about the photo quality - it's behind a sheet of glass (the painting has already gone to a new home)



Thanks for watching!!

Re: 17 ... with a nose ring - WIP

I very much enjoyed the WIP, Mark. You are a very accomplished artist. I was sort of expecting an after shot of that tidy work area..LOL . By the way, I see that you live right across the lake from me here in Lake Dallas, so we are more or less neighbors...J
