Week 5

Well it's taken me a few days to post back on here again, the reason being that I've only just today started working on the latest 'assignment' from art class. 
This week we had to do a 'still life'. One of the ladies in class set up a bunch of different objects on a stand which we were meant to then do a painting of. 
Here is my view of our objects...














I would have started earlier but I couldn't work out how I wanted to do this painting. Rene, my art teacher, showed me an example of a painting in a book at class and I thought I would try to copy (as much as I am able) his style. but I wasn't happy with how everything looked 'as is' so I thought I'd add a bit of extra stuff! lol I'm also not going to fully stick to his style either....In other words I'm gonna make it up as I go along! :oP



As you can see I've taken away the stand and just made it look like a floating platform (don't know why???) and I've added in lots of leaves. Gawd knows how this is going to turn out but what the heck...I'll give it a go! Just mainly done the background and the platform so far...just started working on the leaves now. Fruit/vegies will come last.
Wish me luck.
ps...Yes..I do know the pumpkin looks like two oranges (as my hubby keeps pointing out!..thanks David :oP)...it won't stay that way okay! lol
