A Work in Progress...

The value study:


Critical to any painting about light is a good value study.  This is invaluable for setting up the basic values of the final piece.  This study here is done on relatively thick, smooth drawing paper.  Luckily this kind of paper allows for fine lines which can capture detail both in the highlights and the shadows.  The rest of the information needed can be augmented from photographs and direct observation (since I live just on this street).
