The Artist will create two studies on paper in preparation for the final commissioned work on canvas. She will create these on two different color grounds of the Client’s selection. Please select 2 color swatches from below: Note that the swatches are divided between thin washes of color that let you see the background color pop through and let you see the brush strokes (numbers 1 to 8) and opaque colors with thicker, more textured appearance in which the foreground is dominant and the brush strokes less apparent (numbers 9 - 16).This is an important decision in the overall effect of the final portrait. See and example of each type below.
