Spring term – Week 6 (17/02)

WEEK 6:

– Display idea; customary/temporary because it has to be made new for every exhibition (but the painting/artwork does not have to be made again – new)

– Finishing first painting and starting next (of the same photo, different format)

– Blocking and some wet on wet technique with watercolours with 3 colours only

Colours used: ultramarine, coeruleum and sap green

Photo used:

The painting process: I’ve used fast brushstrokes to create simple outlines of the parts of the lanscape and experimented with painting the sky and water part of the seascape – at first: painted laying down, which is visible in the drips moving towards the top of the painting – in the end, this results in an ineresting movement of the seascape
