Nr 3: Forms

Painting 3 is an exercise I did with Forza43 Paint Coach.

Four shapes, a cylinder, a ball, a cube and a triangle. I paid the most attention to the reflection of the light in the table and the shadows, and I think it turned out well myself.
What I still struggle with is mixing the right color and tone of the color.
I always find it very difficult to put my signature on a painting.
Sometimes I see very nice signatures from other artists, and then I wish I could do that too. With me, it always turns out much thicker and bigger than I planned. Now I've figured out that I'll just put an anchor in the bottom right corner. Not too big, but a kind of signature. I put these 4 details on the back anyway: the number of the painting and the name of the painting, the date and my name.

Still 19,997 paintings to go 😆😆

Products I have used are:

Daler Rowney canvas board 24x30 cm
Oil paint by van Gogh 
This time I only used Titanium white 105, Ultramarine blue 504, Cadmium light red 303 and Cadmium light yellow.
Gamsol.

Nr 11 Johnny Braat

  This is Johnny, a very sweet young man who I don't actually know very well. His mother works where I work and she was pregnant with him when I first started working there. Every now and then she takes Johnny along and with his beautiful curls and gentle character you soon fall in love with this little boy.   When I saw this photo on his mother's profile, I immediately had the idea to draw him.   Just before Christmas I framed the drawing and gave it as a gift. His mother was completely blown away by the drawing and gave it a prominent place among her photos of her family members.   It was an honor to draw Johnny. Still 19,989 paintings and/or drawings to go 😆😆 Products I have used are: Stratmore Toned Tan paper 22.9x30.5 cm Faber Castell Polychromos, Caran d'Ache Luminance an eraser and pencil sharpener.

I t took a while, but Thijs' drawing is now finished!   I started last year but it didn't quite work with the right colors. As a result, I put it aside and started again today with full courage. I think the result is very successful.   Still 19,988 paintings and/or drawings to go 😆😆 Products I have used are: Stratmore Toned Tan paper 22.9x30.5 cm Faber Castell Polychromos an eraser and pencil sharpener.

Nr 10 Jelan Kooijman

  The beautiful weather is wonderful for a sailing trip. Jelan is sailing here with his grandparents from his mother's side. I liked the photo so much that I started drawing it.   It wasn't as easy as I thought. Since he was in full sun, his eyes were almost invisible. I hope I have compensated for that by making them a little lighter. In any case, it looks like you're stepping out onto a lovely summer day.   Still 19,990 paintings and/or drawings to go  😆😆 Products I have used are: Stratmore Toned Tan paper 22.9x30.5 cm Faber Castell Polychromos an eraser and pencil sharpener.
