Title: William Bouguereau's La couturière study
Name: Pauli Pehkonen
Country: Finland
Software: Painter, Photoshop
This is the first actual painting made with my new intuos3 tablet. Which by the way is awesome compared to wacom volito I had previously. :)
In this study i mainly focused on trying to reproduce the subtle colorvariations of the skin and the overall toning of the image, instead of accurately copying the whole painting.
I started by blocking the main shapes with Painters oil pastels and finished the piece in Photoshop using mostly one customised brush.
Gif animation of the process:
