Painting a red apple


Painting One Students:

Please bring one or two apples to class on Monday.

With your new assignment, I would like you to watch the two videos below before coming to class on Monday. They show a couple of different approaches to painting an apple. How you approach this next assignment will be your choice. In the early stages of learning to paint using acrylic I prefer that students learn about underpainting which is a more traditional approach. But, once you go through that process, I am fine with you experimenting with other ways.

I have also provided a link to the ColorMatters website. This is a great site that shows you a wide array of color choices and information. As I said from day one, when it comes to painting color is the most challenging concern. This website will help you with basic color theory.
