painting a nude

so i started off by drawing roughly using the charcoal but i stopped and switched to the brush as i felt somewhat confined by the dark lines of the charcoal


i finished the rest of the drawing by using turpentine and burnt sienna


i began to fill up the background to get rid of the white of the canvas


adding colours gradually..










here, i found myself stunted and worried as i didn't know what to do because of my lack of knowledge of painting... so i went back to charcoal


the charcoal saved me and got me hopes up^_^










this was a great learning experience and i hope to get better and better..
