From both of my workshops this summer I learned that I need to work on my drawing skills - especially with the brush, so I have decide to take on a project of painting this white cup under many circumstances, to see the correct proportions of its shape. My friend Marina told me that in a workshop by Jack Reid she once attended he told her it is sometimes necessary to repeat a subject as many as 25 times to really learn how to paint it. The above painting is a value study in Burnt Umber and White.Monday, September 6, 2010
White Cup # 1 - with Cherry Tomatoes
