Okay , so any thoughts on where that second one is ? I got the one from playing the record behind the picture . <| sep |> More people to teach worse focusing and teaching overall worse teaching of those who would be future teachers less good teachers , with more people to teach . <| sep |> Eu deixei de comprar mta coisa dia 11 na Ali pq ia pagar no boleto e n tinha carto . <| sep |> He truly is Jorah the explorer . <| sep |> I think you mean something like <| sep |> Do you mind saying how long the painting stage of your process would take ? I ' m pretty sure the actual painting step for this piece took right around an hour . Are you letting it dry completely between passes ? I guess , in a related question , how wet are you working ? Last week I recorded myself painting S 6 diiGxWJEEfeatureyoutu . be , which is fairly similar . Figuring out when to let an underneath layer or adjacent layer dry completely and when not to is a part of painting I tend to really enjoy , because I don ' t feel like I every figure it out 100 %. It ' s all trial and error . I tend to jump around a lot while areas dry to where I want them . I ' ve seen people who only paint a single area from start to finish before moving on and that process feels very foreign to me but it ' s certainly a viable approach I ' ve seen some pretty amazing pieces made that way . You also say that you weren ' t really looking for a likeness and weren ' t too invested . Would you mind saying what you ' d do differently if you WERE ? I can think of a couple of approaches . The one I would enjoy the most would probably be just tinkering with the sketch erase , redraw , repeat until I was happy with it . Alternatively , I could break out a ruler and make detailed measurements of the reference 34 between the eyes , 2 length of the nose , etc , etc , but that starts to feel more like math homework than painting to me . If accuracy were the most important part of the piece , then I ' d probably just cheat . Cheating is kind of a loaded phrase , because I don ' t really think that using any tool at your disposal is cheating , depending on what you hope to accomplish with your art . I ' m not above tracing using a lightbox so that the reference can be seen through my paper when drawing or using a projector to put the image on my paper . You can also use a grid method breaking the reference image down into a bunch of smaller images that you reassemble on your page , hoping to preserve proportions if the stigma of tracing is just too much for you to bear . usanjayatpilcrow consistently impresses me with the accuracy of his portraits maybe he has something to add on how he accomplishes the things he does .
