I finished my star!!
I forgot to note earlier that we were supposed to have a contrast of cool and warm colors. Hence the green background. Which through the magic of the Internet looks more turquoise than the mint green in real life. Still a pretty shade either way, I think!
An experienced classmate (Yes, the class is all levels. Which is good, I feel you can learn more by seeing more…and talking more.) told me that Viridian Green is a fun color to use for texture, as the pigments don't always dissolve completely through no fault of your own. I also like the shading it created as I experimented with the Wet-on-Wet technique.
(Here's the work in progress post)

Did you paint the background last? Are they acrylics or watercolors.
ReplyDeleteWatercolors, and I painted the background last. It was fun working with the water; the color would only go where I had wet the paper. Kinda fun to play with!
