Painting with MilanC. part 13: Albert Camus


Just like always, here are the main phases of my painting process:
01. Preparation phase;
02. Sketch phase;
03. Painting phase.

I Preparation phase:

For my next idea, I thought of painting Albert Camus, a famous French novelist. For the source, I used this image:

For this painting, I’ll be using pencils and crayons on Blok 5 (A5 format paper). I also used crayons and some pencils. There's nothing much to mention about the colors because it's in grayscale, except that I used black and gray crayon for this one.

II Sketch phase:

In this phase, I'll draw a sketch for the painting, nothing special. After drawing the sketch, we’ll end up with something like this:

III Painting phase:

For the last phase, there's nothing much to mention. Like always, I started from the bottom and worked my way towards the top. I first did the outfit and then the face. It was pretty simple and I also like how it turned out so far. For the time being, it should look something like this:

The last thing I painted was the background. It was overall pretty easy and I didn't really have any trouble painting the background. It took me about 6 hours to paint this portrait. Overall, I'm really happy with a result:
