The beginning stages...
Advanced Drawing and Painting
Students have begun blocking in the values of the "almost" white still-life. They are painting on untempered Masonite board that has been primed with 4 coats of plain old primer (a good stand in if you are short on gesso). Students first painted a warm wash of color on their boards. Students then created black by mixing ultramarine blue and burnt umber acrylic paint, this collaboration of color creates a rich black, with depth. Mixing the black they created with white, a gray scale is developing. It is always exciting to see the initial stages of a painting.
