As of week three, I managed to complete the majority of the Old Master's drawing. Of course, there will be minor tweaks and adjustments that I will make as I continue to work and put the finishing touches on certain areas. For this week, the hardest part of working was definitely as I began to work on the abdomen area. As seen in the previous reference image of the sketch, the abdomen area is very diverse in its range of line quality which give the appearance of value. Due to this, it was very difficult to properly replicate the marks in the area, and I even have not completely finished working on the area. The main difficulty was attempting to darken the lines enough to convey the shadow of the area while also maintaining the integrity of the mark. In other exciting news, due to the fact that I was able to make a large amount of progress in completing the figure, I started filling the negative space with the searching lines of the original sketch, which I think makes the sketch look a thousand times better. As I further work on areas such as the abdomen and the shoulders I will also continue to add the searching lines, which I believe will only further to improve the appearance of the image.
