Form

The drapery is improving, and the viewfinder continues to be a big help. The purpose of this exercise was to choose three or four objects of different shapes and perhaps include forms that seem to have no shape like smoke or water. I would have improved the jar of water by putting more brown behind the jar handle, though I did not see it when looking at it. In art school the teacher told us we were allowed to make the glass clear to show it is glass even if we don't see it in real life. Since I'm still learning with acrylic gouache, I want to practice incorporating other colors in the flat colors. I cut out from a magazine a Cezanne I admired that the white pitcher and dish were filled with other colors. I love it.
