I used to think I didn’t need to make value studies at all. It was when I learned how important tonal value really is to a painting that I started making value studies. At first I thought it was more like a black and white version of the painting.

 

 

I didn’t take a photo of the final painting
before it was taken away.

 

I found it tedious. Then I watched videos of painter Andy Evansen on YouTube. He has a very simple way of making value studies. Limiting the picture to three values and connecting shapes.

 

     

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here you can watch my video on tonal value.

 

See you next time!
