Richard Shields - Line Sketches

I know this isnt exactly an assignment but its a personal thing I wanted to get better at. A lot of these were done during class or even the life drawing workshop, I would stop to draw the room as I wanted to get better at line economy (basically whats the least I can get away with in regards to using line.) I found it pretty similar to painting actually in that a lot can be indicated with a few marks.

Richard Shields - Value Sketches

These were done around campus on days that were nice, a few of them were near my apartment in

Culver and some in Burbank between classes. Some on location, some from photos I took and value corrected on the spot.

Bored in class and stepping outside in between classes. The middle one with the van is in Culver, I stopped on the side of the road to capture the overall comp and took a photo when the van passed because I absolutely loved the light over dark there and how that was the highest point of contrast.

Richard Shields - San Gabriel River

Found some oil tankers along the way

Tried to capture the bounce light here, mildly successful but still a ways to go...

This was me panicking.

This is the first landscape I attempted to paint.

Some field I drove by in Moreno Valley. I really wanted to push the color compliments

First attempt at painting clouds.

I wanted to experiment with painting water fountains

I wanted to experiment with using both ink and gouache

I wanted to pay attention to window reflections with this painting

I used both markers and gouache on this one.
