Tonal Paintings



The next stage, after closed grisaille, was adding tonal variations to the painting. We were encouraged to stick with just three tones; light, medium and dark.

The painting on the top is my first attempt. The one on the bottom is my final tonal painting before we moved on to color studies. It's one where I felt that something was "happening," where the concepts I was learning were starting to come together.
