5 + a day

Vegetables?
Zucchini my worst fear! 
No not really we're just sketching. We learnt that you start with light pencil strokes, then when we are finished we will have dark lines. We had to shade in the parts that were darker  than the rest. We also learnt that we had to stay in the same spot because if we move our perspective will change. This is mine:

No paint shirts?

We all got our paint shirts out but Darryn say that was amusing to watch but we were going to be sketching today instead. He said to start lightly so we can rub out if we need to. Then we make them darker once we are happy with the shape. After that we shade in the parts that we can see have shadows or that are darker than others. It was hard to get the shape right and the proportion.

A swipe of a brush

With a swipe of a brush and a flick of a pencil we started art. First we had to draw a cartoon face and make it actually the same. Then we started painting.  I just had to paint the plate and do some touch ups.      
My apple looks like the apple I chose, it was hard because it was tricky to get the colours exactly the right shades.  I am happy with my end product.

Art

"Get your art shirts on and get ready to paint" says Darryn. Today we kept on painting our still life apples. I had already painted my backround a dark grey so now it was time to paint the light colour on the apple. The colour was a greeny yellow colour. Then it was on to crimson colour we had to lightly put the crimson on. I havent painted the plate yet. 

PS It's the first day back =)
