This is my second analogous painting, using red-violet,
violet, and blue-violet, (with a touch of straight blue in the background).
This is an organic painting that is asymmetrical, as he is primarily on the
right-hand side of the painting.
I
believe the focal point would fall on his face, as it has the most lighting and
details on the overall painting. I attempted to capture texture in his hair to
make it look as if it were slicked back, using lighter lines.
As I said before this guy was meant to be what I thought a
humanoid of my Doberman may look like. Just as the Doberman did, this portrait
also came out a bit more cartoon-y than my liking (mainly because of his eyes),
since he came out kind of looking like a Disney prince. His neck is also a bit
too long and I need to bring his shoulders up to fix that! I also wish I could have
captured his more angular features better (since it’s why I picked this model),
but it got more smoothed out during blending. Despite its flaws I think I
learned what I can do differently when I do my next portrait to make it easier!
