oil painting | process

The last two weeks or so we have worked to prepare for our oil paintings. Last week, Grace and I finally managed to fix our composition and begin drawing. The charcoal I used was too dark and loose so some of it bled into the paint while I was working on the grisaille layer. This made it hard to paint the correct values, especially since I was already putting the paint on too thickly. I think I figured it out some though, so hopefully this week goes better.
