Let me show you how I approach value composition studies.
I start with a basic sketch that resembles the photo to warm up. Then I experiment by adjusting values, like changing the darkness of the shirt or lightening the hair, to see how it affects the composition. I also play with the background and cropping, trying different shapes and contrasts to frame the subject. It's all about testing different ideas, simplifying shapes, and seeing what works best for the piece.
