I created the above 40 artworks in the 3rd quarter of 2014, and the following 35 preliminary sketches were used to create them. See and read more about the artworks I created in the 3rd quarter of 2014 here. I create my artworks in darkness on photographic paper. Once the photographic paper is exposed and processed it is complete. I cannot adjust anything afterward or go back over an area as a painter would on canvas. So I work with many pieces of photo paper before completing a final artwork. These are known as preliminary sketches or test strips. Preliminary Sketch: A quick or less detailed painting often made as a preliminary study; a brief general account or presentation. I often create preliminary sketches in preparation for larger, more detailed works of art. Test Strip: A method of calculating exposure in photographic printing. A number of exposures are given to smaller pieces of paper, over specific areas of the image to help judge the exposure in the final print. I use test strips to calculate exposure times as well as to determine colors and color combinations. I sell my preliminary sketches to offer my original art affordably for everyone. I am offering the following preliminary sketches for $20, $40, and $60 +$5 shipping anywhere in the US or free pick-up locally. This is an excellent way to collect Artwork by Natasha Bacca or get great gifts for loved ones! Each piece is an original so get the one-and-only piece while you can!
