Still Life with Grapes and Pears. Scratchboard, 10 x 8 in. Copyright 2008, Tania Nault.
Remember this one? See, this is what happens when I set something aside for a “couple days”! I can see a couple touch-up areas on the background, but otherwise I’m calling this guy finished.
Funny thing about this board: it’s the one I’d started in (yikes!) January when I first started feeling off about my work. Over the past few days of finishing it, and surfin’ the ‘net looking for ideas about how to handle my End of Winter Slump, I think I’ve come up with a plan on how to learn/work my way out of it. On March 31, the day after the RFA group show is over, I’ll let you know all about it.
Until then, I’ll return tomorrow with another ”Tutorial Tuesday” and we’ll have a look at varied hatching – well, it better be varied hatching because that’s what I did the sample of over the weekend!
