Yellow kerchief (Patreon)

Painting of a scarf. I already described this process in the post "Fabric folds" and this process is no different except for a set of colors. Since I wanted to repeat this effect of the silk fabric once again, I painted the scarf in two layers, with glazes. In the first layer, two stages can be distinguished. On the first one I apply a transparent layer of paint, and on the second one already opaque and simulate the basic shape of the folds. Since I apply an opaque layer on top of a trasparent one, they blend and form a halftone. Then I dry the first coat and move on to the second coat. The second layer can also be divided into two stages. At the first stage, I also use a transparent color, and at the second stage, I apply a non-transparent color, but not on the entire surface, but only on the protruding folds and only on their tops. As you have already noticed, I separate transparent and opaque colors, and I am trying to use this difference in texture.

Happy viewing. In the next post I will start a new piece and the post will be about portrait and painting of hand. Thank you.
