Watercolor Landscape:
For this assignment, I had to create a landscape piece using watercolor paint. I decided to use a picture of Mount Fuji as my reference. I struggle to work with watercolor so this assignment was a bit of a challenge for me. I am pretty happy with how the snowy portion of the mountain came out. However, I feel like a the forest portion and details of the mountain and are not as ornate as I would like them to be. I think if I figured out what the proper techniques were to create the textures I desired, the piece would have looked more realistic. |
Acrylic Paint Color Wheel:
For this assignment, I had to create a color wheel using primary color paints. This allowed me to exercise my knowledge of color theory and practice creating different colors by mixing the three primary colors. I think this will be a very helpful tool when we get more into acrylic painting, where I will need to be able to mix custom shades for my pieces. |
