Assignment 5 - Concept for Color Diary

 So for the next couple of weeks, our assignments are based on color. We've been asked to start off with exploring our immediate environment and reproducing colors based on our environment, using acrylic paints. For this week, we're only required to have two palettes done, but we will need at least 12 and we'll need to create a still life painting using one of those palette.

Starbucks Cup and Sleeve

Covid Mask

Local Leaves

Kleenex Box

Hair Straightener

Favorite Dresses

Current Desktop Wallpaper

Wet Bar Backsplash

Decorative Fall Leaves

Sunset on Halloween

Painting in my Space

Stuffed Pokémon (Espeon)

For my Still Life painting, I chose my current Desktop Wallpaper colors, as I think they're so pretty. I set up a wine bottle with a lamp shining on it to cast the shadow in such a way that it was obvious where the light is. 

Size: 18" x 24"

Paper: Newsprint

Medium: Acrylic Paints

Out of curiosity, I held up the finished painting up against the window, and really liked the effect the sun's light shone through the colors, showing each brush stroke, resembling a Van Gogh painting. so I decided to show this to you. Hope you enjoy!
