First, I was in heaven yesterday. Ashley working with charcoal & Matt working with graphite, life just does not get any better.
Now to my oh I get it. Te with 2r’s i was kind enough to critique my first attempt at colored pencils. Terri stated that the drawing looked flat. To make a long story short, oops to late, my untrained eye just could not see where it was flat. It has taken almost 5 months, then it hit, Matt in his color critiques always takes the color out to look at the values. That is what I did, and my first impression was that this looks flat, washed out. I thank Terri & all those who gave their advice once again & hope this helps others who, like me struggle along the way.
