"Untrained Melody"

     This illustration was an attempt to put into practice some of the drawing and painting fundamentals I've been learning so far.  My recent art learning involved some perspective drawing, figure drawing, animal drawing, composition and some color and light.  This was also my attempt to paint straight in color. without going through the grayscale stage and then just colorized the image after, like what I did here.  So for this illustration, I painted the colors in stages. Although every now and then, I would filter out the hues to check the values, whether the overall image works or not. 

     Slowly but surely, my goal of being able to draw and paint from imagination is not so far-fetched anymore.
