| Lone Pine, 9 x 12, oil on canvas board |
I finally quit procrastinating and got back into the studio. I had the photo below of a pine tree I wanted to paint. The print is very faded in color because my printer color ink cartridge needs replaced, but I was more interested in the relationship of values than the local color.
I'd found a suggestion on Facebook which told to put a grey value scale under the glass of your palette, so it was easy to lay your paint on top to check value. I decided to start this painting with a grey underpainting, paying attention to values.
