It may seem like the sphere is white but it is actually a very pale pink, the camera did not do it justice.

I am not satisfied with this painting as could not get time to work on it properly but still I learned a lot about color value from this assignment.

At first when I was making the darker shades with the Cadmium yellow I was brought back to my panic because I initially thought it was going to match with the raw umber. Turns out I was worrying for no reason. I do like how this one still looks like an old antique painting like the raw umber one!

Also- I’m definitely going to bring this one to class on Tuesday because my phone makes the color look crazy yellow. I swear it’s not that yellow when you look at it in person. Haha!

I learned from my mistakes! I did the background first! 😄

I completely forgot to take a photo of the color palette before painting. I swear the five colors are there. Everything is just all mixed together because I wanted to make  a nice transition between the different shades.
I had decided to use the Cadmium yellow mainly because I’ve learned my lesson when it came to choosing a secondary color. I always panic whenever I don’t have enough purple or green so I figured that using a primary color would have been my safest option.

Got really carried away that I sort of forgot to take progress pictures...

part 2! i wanted to make the colors more rough rather than blending it like last time :)

Color choices. I always like to do things out of my comfort zone and as these choice of colors show that🙄🙃

So like the pear on the right- I would recommend you cross your eyes and stand back 10 ft to really see the beauty and precision of the leaves! Lol!
I wish I had more space on my phone to record my process with the background because that part was so tedious to do! Especially in between the little spaces of the leaves and the stem.

# data[].attributes.body
Here is day 1 of my downward spiral. I was happy with the pear on the left, but it’s confused cousin on the right wasn’t doing it for me. I tried to blend in the colors to soften the edges but I kinda just gave up. Just cross your eyes and stand back 10 feet. I promise it looks better that way.

Also a future tip to everyone but more specifically to myself- do the background first and then the objects in the image. 🥲 Whats funny too is that I knew I should have done the background first but I got too excited to paint the bottle because the color I mixed matched too well and I didn’t want to wait. Shame on me- 🙈

# data[].attributes.body
I decided to use raw umber since I haven’t really been using it since the color swatches assignment. I really do like this color and the different tones and shades that it makes. It gives a really antique feel.

Sweet story I wanted to share since I’m on the topic of raw umber!
I ran into a sweet old man at Michael’s recently. We were both in the paint section and I immediately found the color I was looking for. The old man joked saying “I’m glad one of us found the color we needed!” And I asked what he was looking for and it was raw umber. I found it for him and he thanked me. He then proceeded to make me wanna cry because he ended up telling me that he and his late wife used to restore old antique items. And it was his late wife that would find the colors they needed for their work. He was so kind and sweet and I swear every time I get my raw umber now I alway think of him. ( ;w;)

This is the image I chose for the assignment. I knew what I was going to get myself into when I chose this image. I was already dreading my decision when I took a good look at the leaves and the stem they were on from the bottle!
