No, not yet. It’s a good likeness but I can’t get the badass kindness in his expression. Mine is just too intense and I’m not sure why. Plus the eyes are too big and a few other proportional things. What else am I missing?
I feel like the painting looks more like my brother than Mr. Jackson.
LMAO! I think the sketch I did first was pretty close and as I painted I got further and further away and didn’t notice until I was done. I’m trying to just use one layer like a traditional painter would and it floated away from me one at a time. I made marks for chin, eyes, mouth, ears, and so on along with the sketch.
Normally I’d step away from the painting and come back and fix and go again (trying to mirror Pablo Picasso), but as I’m practicing for these painting sessions I won’t be able to do that so I’m trying to find a new technique (like Tigger Woods did for his golf swing) that will work in those sessions and I’m struggling.
