Thank you! That's what I kept working on in the last few days, and I'm still not sure about it 100%. But it's comforting to know that people appreciate the effort.

I've been staring at this trying to think of something to write about it, but I can't find any words to add other than simply stating the obvious... this is another great piece with the emotion well captured.

Beautiful as always! I love the composition and colouring on this, I think you may have killed me with this one!
On a technical note, I was wondering, do you paint in colour or in BnW/Sepia and then colour it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes. I mean - not always, but I often do when I work on a quite complex sketch composition-wise. Starting with a rather monochromatic color scheme (greyscale or sepia or other) allows me to focus on composition, volumes, lights and shadows without having to worry about HUE and skin tones.
I basically keep painting in greyscale until I reach a pretty decent draft, then I change the HUE or add some gradient map to define a color scheme. Then I keep adding colors manually as I proceed to paint the details.
I don't know if it was useful! Thank you!

That was very useful actually, thank you! I've been struggling to break out of my portrait only comfort zone to be honest, and I've been thinking that painting in grey scale may be the answere to helping me break my own mould! But I've been daunted by how to approach the colouring afterwards, I'm obviously going to have to look up tutorials on gradient maps etc in PS! Thanks again!
