Day 3's challenge was boats with photos of single boats and multiple boats. Again to challenge myself, three boats on the edge of a shoreline is the photo I chose (top left). Efren did a demo to begin the day and explained how to block in the boats. Each day of his class is building on the skills from the day before. It took me lines and lines in diluted paint to get the boat shapes correct. I had to take a break from the boats so worked on the background then came back to block in the darks and first colour layer on the boats. Top right: my painting in progress. Bottom left: further along, still working on the water shadows (very strange colouring). Bottom right: Efren critiquing my painting and adding stronger highlights to the top of the boat. What a difference his final touches make! https://www.artinmexico.com/artists/ https://sic.gob.mx/ficha.php?table=galeria&table_id=56 https://www.facebook.com/artefrengonzalez/?locale=es_LA "Tres Amigos"
