Went to Pearl Point on Canal Street by myself this week, spent quite some times (it was a maze) and a fortune in there.

then started to work on the color aids first. This was me trying to organize the color.

then after 3 hours later, I got it done and clipped them for division. (looks nice)

then I started to work on the value matching!

after the full range and 10 steps of grayscale value were done, I started the painting. (The last time I used a brush to draw was about 1o years ago!)

I made quite a mess…

it really took me quite some time to paint this, but I thought it was pretty worthy. 🙂

here were all the grayscale studies I made this week!

and the final piece was the value matching!

9/9

I modified value matching chart a bit (get rid of the warm grey) and scanned it
