Tito a favorite Model posed this morning wearing shades in the one three-hour session.. How do you go about painting sunglasses to look like authentic sunglasses? Through some experience I learned that to paint anything is to state what you really see and not what you think is there. So if I do not see the eyes then I won’t put them in. Behind the sunglasses I did not see Tito’s eyes so I did not state the eyes. This sketch as a whole was somewhat of a challenge for me. I can see where a few spots can be easily refined, but I am going to leave it alone and call it a good sketch.
