Step-by-step Face painting

Painting one's face actually not one of artist's favorite objects among all. Subjectivity of client, bad lighting or too small (if taken from a piece of photo), and of course artist's mood. All those three need to be in the right place and compromised to get good results.
Here is a step by step face painting of a young woman in awkward position and smile :).
Using HB pencil first, then darkening a few part of faces, eyes -nose-lips detailing (very crucial) and then finishing from light-to-dark and wet-on-wet method at the background, transparently layer by layer.

My latest face painting on march

Painting people's faces is really tempting challenge for me. You will face of what consumers want and technical difficulties in showing expressions on the face. Both must be discussed to gain the ability of consumers in enjoying art meets your skill to get that informations..

More painting of the faces

Menggunakan cat air demikian menyenangkan. Makin menyenangkan ketika klien memberi saya kebebasan menggunakan teknik apapun (yang sebenarnya baru saya pelajari atau temukan seiring belajar) dalam lukisan yang mereka pesan.

Using watercolour has been a very pleasant activity. Even more fun when clients give me freedom to use any kind of technique (that actually I've just learn) in their order.

Lukisan pertama lebih banyak mengunakan teknik wet on dry lapis demi lapis sehingga mendapatkan warna yang tajam serta relatif lebih mudah dikerjakan namun agak memakan waktu.

First painting most of the process using a wet on dry technique Layer-by-layer to get a darkerand sharp color. Easier to do but a bit takes time.

Lukisan kedua agak sulit, pertama, karena pemesannya adalah wartawan foto AFP Perancis yang sangat peka estetika; kedua, arena beliau membebaskan saya (lho?) Karena dengan begitu saya harus menebak seleranya. Menggunakan teknik sapuan wet on wet bahkan lebih lama karena jarang dibiasakan (namun teknik ini menyenangkan, percayalah) tone sephia membuatnya terasa klasik mendekati keindahan hasil foto sang wartawan.

second painting a bit difficult, not because the technique but more to the client which is a photographer that have a very good sense of art and he sets free me in guessing his "flavor" .
Using wet-on-wet is a real fun. More difficult but combined with sephia tone makes it closer with the photos that he produce :)

my Latest face Painting

Painting the face need patience and a bit accuracy. I usually start with the silhouette of the object, and then slowly move to the major details. In watercolor, after silhouettes we can work on the shadow first to determine the direction of the light then the details

It  is strongly recomended to use photo  with strong light.  Will be easier to paint

the faces

 painting a face of somebody, are very tricky but more fun there. My point is how to make an impression of onr's face but still with my style of drawing...

skechtour: meeting at mayor's office

a meeting sometimes makes some of us feel bored. Especially if we dont understand the materials, L.O.L. But, whether understand or no it depends on our willingness to pay attention.
So, i sketch right after the material had completed presentated, since i represent our director in these meeting.

Selamat hari Pendidikan, guru..

Hari pendidikan mengingatkan saya pada beberapa guru yang berjasa (yang sempat disketsa, sketsa papa dilakukan oleh Istiana Mustikaningrum) menghantarkan kami hingga seperti sekarang.







(alm. papa (H. Mulyono, S.IP)_ darinya saya belajar sangat banyak, semua yang bisa beliau lakukan hampir bisa saya lakukan semua, kecuali merakit senjata dengan cepat, dan berbahasa jawa kromo inggil:) bekerja total tanpa kompromi adalah mottonya, hingga kadang waktunya habis untuk pengabdian negara_ seorang guru, ayah, dan pahlawan negara bagi kami.

Siapa yang tak kenal Presiden pertama RI ini? sifat kepemimpinan dan jiwa seninya menginspirasi saya dalam menjalankan tugas (tetap mempertahankan citarasa seni melalui sketsa di sela-sela pekerjaan:) cukup sampai disitu inspirasinya, tidak ke (maaf) poligami:))
