My painting class continues. This week it was blue and green week. Well, to be technically correct, it was yellow, blue, black and white week at my painting class.

We were challenged once again to paint the still life using a limited colour palette. I enjoyed the challenge. Interestingly, I found the oranges easier to mix. Turquoise proved to be a challenging colour (for me) to mix. Deborah decided in her wisdom to give us an anodised green apple to be the focal point of our still life. Actually, I am enjoying being pushed outside of my comfort zone. I would NEVER have attempted to paint an image of an anodised green apple. Equally I would NEVER painted an image of an anodised green apple on an A2 sized page.

I am being challenged … and I love it.

Here is the still life composition we were working from (you’ll note the yellow bowl disappeared from my painting … don’t you just love creative licence!) 🙂
