Trying new techniques to achieve a more traditional / painterly look.

What I learned:
- make your marks follow the underlying structure
- lose most detail in the shadows
- try to make clear and "nice" shapes for your areas
- adding a layer on multiply in the end is nice for those structures in the lit areas
- focussing on values first makes it easier to think about shapes
- using only one layer makes me think about the whole image rather than individual areas, but makes it harder to keep everything clean and increases anxiety to mess up
- decide on an area of focus
- do more master-studies!
Steps below
