Methods for drawing a raindeer

Once I got this sketch worked out (at about 10″ x 8″), I cropped it to 7″ x 5,” the proportion I wanted for the finished piece.The next step was to enlarge that cropped sketch up to a good size to work at for the final drawing, approx. 18.75″ x 13.25.” I did this on our home copier machine.At this stage, I have spent about 2 days working on this piece.

STEP-BY-STEP PROGRESSION OF AN OIL PAINTING

A few years ago, I posted step-by-step images showing how a Santa painting was created, and since lots of people seemed to enjoy it, I’m reposting it here on the site. Please keep scrolling to see the full progression! Thanks! —SG

In 2009, I did a graphite drawing of Santa feeding apples to his reindeer, entitled “Santa’s Treat.” The drawing is approx. 13″ x 8,” and we used this as the image on our family Christmas card that year.

In June of 2014, I came across a copy of the card drawing in a file and thought it might be interesting to revisit the idea.


#2: ROUGH DRAWING

In a revised rough sketch, I moved things around a little and made Santa literally the high point of the composition. I liked this adjustment and decided to use a little window of time in my schedule to take it to the next step of shooting photo reference.
