I can't paint worth crap.
I know, I know...I just had to say it. I did this in my class today.
Look at this horribleness!!! We had about 10 minutes to paint the still life in the room. It was a table set up with white spheres and bottled mixed in with red bottles and boxes. Seems simple enough.
It was a mess. Turns out black and white make a horrible unrealistic grey. Red and black do not make up the darker parts of the red forms and I needed yellow to make the light more convincing.
And you'd think I'd never used any perspective at all.
Live and learn. I cannot wait to improve. I may even practice a bit at home, I was so horrified at how badly I did with this!!!
