Day 4: I think that I am going to call this the completion of this piece. I continued to lighten some areas in the background and worked on the inner shadows of the round pillar cap. I used compressed charcoal and a lot of pressure to get a very dark black tone and then a subtle lighter tone at the bottom. I worked on the paper drapery as well. I tried to transition the tones of darks and lights smoothly and I found that the best way to get that realistic paper look. I also realized finding shadows in something is a lot easier if you try to see it all as shapes. If you are able to see the shapes of the shadows instead of just seeing them as shadows it becomes a lot easier to illustrate them on to the paper. Like I said I am now done with this piece but if you comment any things I could fix I will most likely go back and make edits. My next piece I am working on is a ink self portrait. I have never worked with ink so it will be a new experience for me. Feel free to comment any tips.
