- Burrito Bouquet - Greyscale Photo
The reference photo rotated, cropped and converted to greyscale. I tweaked the contrast a LOT! I also printed the same version in color, and a less contrast-y version so I could decipher some of what I was going on in the photo (burrito vs wrapper vs plate). - Burrito Bouquet 8
Stippling over the linear scratches on Cathy's hand to soften the look. Splotchy, but it does the job of breaking up the lines. Scratching the stippling will soften the splotches. - Burrito Bouquet - Reference Photo
Harold Farley's original photo. Thank you, Harold! - Burrito Bouquet 6
I did very little re-inking on the burritos. Most of the definition was created by short scratches following the contours of the tortillas. - Burrito Bouquet 7
Cathy's hand is taking shape, but it's rough. - Burrito Bouquet 2
More scratching and the rest of the table top. - Burrito Bouquet 3
More scratching and some stippling with ink on the plate. - Burrito Bouquet 4
At some point, I realized that what I'd put in as "table top" under her arm at the upper right didn't make sense and was actually the floor. It was the same color as the table in the photo. I covered that with black ink and worked the shirt a little to make it slightly lighter than black. - Burrito Bouquet 5
The initial linear scratches on the hands and plate to block in the values.
