I usually try to do a quick thumbnail sketch of a scene before starting a painting.
They aren't much to write home about, scribbled quickly just to get an idea,
I don't tend to keep them. Recently, however, I've been working in a hard-back sketchbook,
so keeping the "scribbles" is inevitable.
For a future painting, I'm thinking acrylic on canvas,
similar to others I've done and found a free reference photo seascape.
Sketching it out, playing with ideas.
(Rocks)
(sketched with acrylic paint)
a double page spread with a High horizon line
and then with a Low horizon line
(pencil outline)
(watercolour added)
Quick ideas but they tell me a lot.
When I start the canvas, I'll try to remember to take photos of the process
so
as they say
"Watch this space"
