It is often done with dry media "drawing" tools in early stages to plan the picture. For some like Rockwell, these prelim drawing stages involve many separate studies completed before the final painting is begun. <br /><br />Sometimes this dry media drawing is done on the canvas itself before painting. Dunn would typically use charcoal to do a quick line drawing on the canvas. <br /><br />I also use the word "drawing" to refer to accurate construction with the paintbrush in paint, too. Some artists (especially observational painters) can dive right in with a brush and get total accuracy using their brush as a drawing tool and correcting as they go, but it's the rare imaginative painter who can do that with happy results.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-63755567392217935562016-01-14T11:50:04.995-05:002016-01-14T11:50:04.995-05:00As a "Wanna Be Artist" I am curious as t...As a "Wanna Be Artist" I am curious as to the meaning of your comment regarding Dunn's work.
