"Ceramic Container with Egg" 10cm x 10cm in Acrylic © DWeaverArt
It has been a little while since I've done a still life painting from from life. Like all of my painting I enjoy the process from inspiration to the complete creation. This is no different however, to be open with you while working on this still life painting I was a little bit disappointed in the process because I was being a little impatient and I came very close to throwing in the towel figuretively speaking. I had never done a realistic painting this small and during the process it was not looking like I wanted it to be. My experience as a painter help me to remember every time I do a painting during it's process it never looks like what I expect it to be. As you can see it turned out very good.
Here is how I accomplished this painting. I used a cardboard box. Then I used a box cutter to cut the top flap and side of the box. I used some fabric gray and black to creation a back drop. Finally, I used my drawing lamp which bends and pivots to provide a light source.
All of my realistic painting I start out with a brown undertone painting. In this process I want to establish the very dark tones and middle values which provided a guideline for the paint intensity. Intensity takes a look at how bright or dull a color is. I used a liner bush and a flat brush. Thank you for taking the view my art blog. I truly appreciate it.
