So it hasn't been the most productive week for painting. BUT I did get some work in. I went through my paintbox and discovered some colors that I've never tried, so I worked on a color chart. I did some color charts a long time ago, but haven't since I've been painting regularly. I discovered some new things about some of the colors I've been using. I'm a slow-learner. :)
I also began a tutorial of a new fruit study. A long-distance friend of mine is going to paint along side of me while I do this next painting. So I thought I'd experiment with doing a tutorial. So far I've done still shots and short videos and have emailed her their instructions. If all goes well and I can get it together, I may turn it into a DPW art byte.
While I haven't included the instructions here, I posted a few of the first pictures below. Pay no mind to the dirty thumb nail (real thumb nail, not drawing "thumbnail"), I'd been gardening. :)
