Commission Sketchbook III

2/1/2016

1 Comment

 
I came across a brief time lapse I made, skimming through my third commission sketchbooks, and I thought I would share it.  It's crudely done, but I'm hoping to document all my sketchbooks over the coming months, which I'll share on my website.
​I always talk about how crucial sketchbooks are to my working practice, helping to refine an idea.  From a rough thumbnail sketch to a refined commission biro drawing.  The first thumbnail sketches aid the ideas process, problem solving, working out basic compositions.  If I'm working on a commission for someone, I'll take the sketches a stage further, mainly to give a clearer impression to the client of the proposed ideas, more than I could achieve with a basic thumbnail sketch.  The biro drawing also help me work out the tonal balance of the image, before I commit to the finalised painting.

Appreciate you reading and sharing your story since I can certsdcainly relate and I think others can to
