Acrylic A4: fixing errors
I still make mistakes with proportions early on in a picture. It’s annoying because I’d like to avoid making them.
On the plus side- I tried working without the reference for a while to concentrate on thinking in colour. I may do a bit more on this one.
A4 Skb: an old photo.
The challenge here is to tease out details from an old school photo. Many photos taken in this way tens to be almost monochrome. There is a single colour of varying skin tone in the photo, another for shirt, hair and so on. My job, apart from the usual is to tease out colour where there is tone.

A4 sketchbook: Old lumpy acrylics
This not my own paint, I was visiting and found some.old but good quality Cryla Galleria paint in the garage. The range of colours is very narrow and the white is very lumpy. Nonetheless, it gives interesting texture for free.
With the DofE season about to start, I fancy taking a set of acrylics for campsite evenings. They need to be small tubes and a selection that I’ll actually use.
- Titanium white
- Burnt umber
- Cadmium orange
- Pthalo blue
- Cerulean blue
- Rose madder
- (Pthalo green?),
