This is a study of Ignatov’s Winter Hat painting. No I didn’t get his beautifully subtle brush strokes, no I didn’t get the model’s likeness and no I didn’t get the colors right, but… I had a lot of fun doing it. See below for the step-by-step.
Retouched and shot in much better light (oil on canvas)
A few abandoned projects. Thought I’d post them to keep tabs.
