Ben: "highlights are cool" Me: "damn right they are" Ben: "this is a cool highlight, crimson and white" Me: "hell yeah it is!" Ben: "lights are cool, shadows are warm..." Me: "oh, that's what he meant..."

@tinkerno11 4 роки тому

P S oh yes, I watch a lot of these and think how easy these professionals with years of training make it look. On and off I’ve been working on the famous painting “Girl with a Pearl Earring” for 3 years, but when I try and use the information like I’ve looked at today, it most certainly will not go the same. I will not give up on this though because I’ve already put too much into it! She may not look quite the same at the girl but it will be my version!
