Painted from life in my Alla Prima Class this week. Got the go-ahead to try the rub-out method so I did a little bit.
Didn't really use it too much on the first day, but I was working with a crappy sheet of paper towel.
It's pretty hard to tell since my paint application is so thin, but many of the lighter values are the subtracted areas. I remembered to bring a cloth with my this time so it went a lot more smoothly.
I had trouble capturing the likeness of the first model. I think it's because I haven't drawn his face before. The second model has always been challenging to me, but I think this is my first successful attempt getting her face fairly similar. Overall it was fun, and I'll be playing around with this method some more.
