Week of 11/9

Hi All,
This week you are to choose a monochromatic object--it should be a bright color, not a dull one--and paint that object in the same manner as the "eggs" that we painted in class.  Whatever object you choose, draw it first by outlining the color/value sections--the shifting from light to dark--and fill in those different sections with the appropriate pure hue, tint or shade.

First decide where the pure hue will go and carefully fill in the whole section.  Then mix and fill in tints and shades as needed.  Remember that the pure hue will follow the same rules as any color: the brightest version of it happens in it's most natural form.  Yellow is very light, red is somewhere in the middle, blue is somewhere in the darker end of the scale.

One last thing: your object should FILL a page of your sketchbook!
