Asked for help
HI Morgan,
I'm not even close to this stage yet, but I wanted to watch the first painting all the way through so I would have some idea where we were headed. Now I have a question. It seems you painted this guy in one session. What if we need to spread out sessions out over the course of several days and the paint begins to dry? Should we aim to set aside a good chunk of time for this, or can spread it out over a few days?
Thanks,
Jeff

I know you will have to spread it over days. You can always use your premixed paint to help in the edge softening if you need to.

Hi, Morgan. So far, this course has been exactly what I've been looking for. Like Leon below, I used a ruler instead of folding paper -- a two-inch grid for the larger areas and a 1-inch grid for the features.

Okay good. That's going to be great start to take it further into paint now. The separating of shadow from light and creating nice light shapes as we go will be what I hope you pay most attention to. This is grid system is getting everyone a great placement of the main areas of the head. Now we need to dive in and hone it with good observation that got you this far. We may lose the grid as we apply paint but the mindset of looking at abstract shapes is never going away. We take it to the end.
