Get my art on.
Tuesday evening 6 pm -- 9 pm. Beginning Oil Painting
Northrup King Building, taught by Clea Felien.
Q: Why?
A: New Year's Resolution #2. Do some learning.
Lesson One. Value. And we're not talking the family variety.
-- Set up still life, background and lighting.
-- Attempt to draw using little charcoal stick.
-- Wonder how those mountains got in my picture.
-- I'm learning. It's hard to be a beginner in something when in my real life job I get to be the boss and tell people what to do.
--I'm learning. A whole new language. Dark. Light. Value. Perspective. Negative Space.
This art thing. It ain't easy.
So, for all of you who look at a painting and say, "I could do that!" Well, I've got news for you.
You can't.
Don't even try.

Your drawing looks pretty good. Not sure where the mountains came from, but your value work is exquisite. You'll never look at a bowl of apples the same way again.
