Another homework assignment

I'm learning a lot from these seemingly simplistic homework assignments in my painting class.

This weeks was a glazing assignment. We were to make two 9 inch by 9 inch grids, then criss cross primary color across them to overlap. One was done in paint thinned with water and the other thinned with glazing medium.

Here's the water-thinned grid:


It's definitely like water-color, for obvious reasons. Very streaky- and not very saturated.

Here's the one I thinned with Liquitex Glazing medium:


I know its not a big difference in these photos. Still a bit streaky, but more bold, more saturated. The paper stained less and the colors took to each other more easily.

Interesting.

Neatness is a big part of our grade, and thats something I REALLY struggle with. I hope these are ok.
