Update... So, I'm not giving up on this one... I'm taking it nice and slow.
This painting 'birthday girl' was finished over two nights and printed on canvas. Success - paint at 300 dpi and stick to proper scale. The printer matched the sides of the stretched area to an orange used in the back ground and it looks great!
Thumbnails to work on at a later stage... always nice to have a few of these at hand for when you're feeling like working on something from a quick sketch.
TUESDAY 09 OCTOBER FRIDAY 06 OCTOBER Lunchtime sketch contd.
THURSDAY 05 OCTOBER Lunchtime sketch contd. - I'm thinking of having this one printed on canvas. Not too big. Just as a test... I need to find out requirements for canvas printing...
Could be a bit dark - I can't tell - the callibration on my machines at work and home vary so much... perhaps that's why my colours look a bit 'off' sometimes.
