Skin tone practice using Lauren K. Cannon’s tutorials. Guys this painting stuff is really fun.

Posting this because I figure someone else might benefit from these tutorials, they’re awesome.

EVERYONE. PLEASE.

See, this is what I mean when I say I’m stupid when it comes to color.  This tutorial’s currently totally useless to me.  It goes way past my skill level with color.  I see sets of palettes and I start panicking.  WHERE DO THEY COME FROM?  HOW DO YOU FIGURE OUT WHAT GOES IN THEM?  HOW DO YOU FIGURE OUT WHEN AND WHERE TO PUT THEM?

Man, you can’t just hand me swatches and expect me to know what to do.  I get that a person’s skin has a lot more variation than I give it; what I need to learn is how to get there from here.

(I’m reblogging anyway in hopes that one day it will not be useless to me.)
