Jumping Youngs-Grisaille Stage 3


I worked exclusively on the first boy. I really struggled getting the hands to look realistic. They have been a challenge.

The only medium I have used at this point has been pure turpentine mixed with the oil paint. The paint is so lean I can't seem to cover the imprimatura. You can still see it peeking through on his cheeks and forehead.
