2.04.2012 Next I am going to paint a blue crab that I caught while fishing in Rockport, Texas. I am fascinated with wood grains lately... it will be wood in the background. I also like the pretty colors on the crab. |
|
|
|
2.06.2012 I started with the background today.
|
|
|
|
2.07.2012 I tried to add in some browns and start the crab but it is way too wet to make much headway. I will try again in a couple of days.
|
|
|
|
2.11.2012 I started adding Mr. Crab. |
|
|
|
2.13.2012 I added some of the legs today. I also painted some of the darker spots and shadows on the wood. Lots more details to come... |
|
|
|
2.15.2012 I'm still trying to get the proportions of everything correct. I also started shading the crab more and I added the eyes. |
|
|
|
2.18.2012 I added more blue to the wood... |
|
|
|
2.19.2012 I added more dark grays/ contrast to the wood today. I also added some light yellowish browns. |
|
|
|
2.20.2012 I changed up the legs some today and added white to the arms. |
|
|
|
2.25.2012 I worked more on the crab legs today. Added lots of reds and oranges. |
|
|
|
2.26.2012 I worked on the crabs head more today. I tried to get rid of some of the harsh contrasts up there. I also added some cerulean blue to the legs which seems to work better. |
|
|
|
2.28.2012 I worked on his face and claws more. Almost finished!
