Since I first posted to this Forum on
Sept. 7, I have learned a great deal, thanks to the generous advice that is to be found here. I've discovered edges, which is to say I now understand we don't need them everywhere; I've learned about skin tones, and how warm and cool colors may be applied to achieve skin colors in a believable fashion, and much more.
In this painting, I've applied all I've learned to the best of my ability. I think I've reached a point with it where any changes I make may not be the right ones.
Here we have the Schneiders. This is the painting that resulted from the discussion on composition for couples
here.
I made some adjustments: de-emphasised his hand; reduced the amount of light on the dark side.
I would be much obliged for critique to help resolve issues I've missed. Feel free to cut, chop, manipulate, discombobulate, etc.
Watercolor, 22"x30"
Thanks in advance,
