An artist needs to have the ability to build up a strong emotional impression of the subject and then keep this initial impression throughout the entire creative process. The representation of this emotional impression gets stronger and stronger with each step and shines through in the final artwork.
Before I start the drawing, I have an image of the final painting in my mind, based on the emotional impression formed during the interviews with my client.
The drawing stage is often the first step in the process. A drawing is usually necessary when a likeness is required. Use a 2H pencil to outline the important elements, leaving the pencil marks on when the work is done as part of the total artwork.
