"Mary Janes" by Deanna Jaugstetter Georgia Artist

Doing a value study of a subject prior to painting the work to be executed is a discipline that is beneficial for the artist. Often, I enjoy the value study so much that I would enjoy framing it as a finished work. Such is the value study for Mary Janes! I use Derwent watersoluble Graphitone pencils for the drawing, then finished the study as I would a watercolor with brush.
