A Colorful Portrait: I Love Lavender!
Here’s a portrait from 2021 that I haven’t posted. I can’t remember what the blog topic I wanted to address with it was. I look at it now and totally fall in love with the hair and the beard again. I love how it seems to be moving up and around of its own accord. […]
What’s on Patreon/RozInterim in October 2022?
You’ve seen this sketch in full before—I have used it as one of my Wizards. But I saved the video to discuss on my Patreon blog for October 2022. You’ve read here on RozWoundUp what I think about working with intention; how I love to experiment; how I think it’s crucial to play and […]
On Patreon/RozInterim in September 2022—Brush Pen
The discussion on Patreon, and my demos, for the past couple of months, has been about defining what is a loose drawing to you, and how to work loosely to achieve that vision. I guess there’s always more to discuss about working loosely when you love working with brush pen. So this month on Patreon […]
What’s on My Patreon Site for August 2022?
Last month on my Patreon/Roz-interim site I was writing and demonstrating working loosely. For me working loosely is a big topic. I’ve written about the need for each artist to define what “loosely” means to him or her. For me part of working loosely involves the tools you’re using. So this August I’ll be continuing to […]
Sketching Loosely in July
This July on Patreon I’ll be discussing working loosely, whether sketching or painting. First of course we will actually define our terms—what is loose? (Hint: it will be different for everyone, but we can still have approaches…) If you would like to join in and catch the videos please subscribe to Patreon/RozInterim here. Whatever you […]
What’s on Patreon/RozInterim in February?
This month on Patreon/RozInterim I’m going to be continuing my discussion of skin tones. We’re going to look at color temperature. Whether you draw people, plants, pets, or still life subject matter you’ll want to think about temperature. Subscribe here at RozInterim.
Being Fussy Doesn’t Really Bother Me All That Much
I think if I sketched on an iPad doing white hairlines would be pretty easy, but then I wouldn’t have the fun of messing with white gouache, or gel pens, or any of the things I end up using while working on paper. I got very fussy at the end of this sketch, but I’m […]
This Month on RozInterim on Patreon It’s Studies, Including Cats…
But in June I’m going to paint some dogs. Of course. I just wanted to give you a heads up about what’s happening on my Patreon site in May 2021. There I’ve already got a video up discussing making a study portrait. I’ll be discussing this topic throughout the month. Tiers 2 and 3 […]
The April Demo—Thinking About Pattern and Texture in the Design of a Painting
This month on Patreon I do a graphite and watercolor portrait. I use this portrait to begin a discussion on thinking about how the texture of brush strokes and the use of pattern and other textures in a painting impact the readability of that painting. The discussion will continued in May when I look at […]
February 2021’s Painting Demo On Patreon
Patreon-RozInterim is my subscription blog where I do drawing and painting demos. For February 2021 I did this portrait shown in this post. I’m excited about it because I love painting with glazes of color, and this sketch gave me the opportunity to demonstrate this to subscribers. Another thing I enjoy about having the Patreon […]
