Thanks
Raffaele,
I want to thank you very much for that post. It is extremely helpful and will use your tips this Friday. Also, after the underpainting dried I had noticed that the arm was overstretched and couldn't think of anything to fix the problem at the time. I will certainly try out your advice and see if defining the elbow will work.
People have asked me if I have ever thought about traveling to Europe to study and copy from the Old Masters. How tempting it sounds, but in a world where technology is moving so quickly I think it is necessary to try to learn some of the new art forms as well. Perhaps someday when I'm a little older and wiser. This wasn't how I thought at first. I was planning on going to the Florence Academy of Art right after high school, but was tempted with technology and decided to stay.
