Another learning point

I have been going to a weekly painting class. This time I was encouraged to take a pencil sketch  and looking at the values and tones paint the picture in colour. I chose this picture of a horse. I loved the sketch, as it had caught the movement of the animal, and the grace as well! I enjoyed the experience and see the value of actually sketching a picture in pencil, working out the lights and darks, the values  and tones and then paint it in colour.

    Brinda, this is great! The horse is coming out of the paper, and has wonderful movement! Well done!

    Judy has said it, the movement is great, and looks like the horse is coming towards me. Very well done Brinda.

    I can hear it galloping quickly...I must move out the way lest be run down.
    Beautifully done!
