7th Lesson - Camels
We are just slowly dabbing away at the standing camel's blankets. Remember that any dips or folds in the material will have a dark shadow, and anything that sticks out will have a highlight. Dab with a small, round, bristle brush to give a woolly texture. I washed in the background with some left-over Yellow Ochre and turps just to see what the colour would look like - I haven't quite decided what to do with my background yet!
