I thought this would be a really interesting experiment. It's an experiment when you have no idea what you are doing. I started out painting the spread black.
You can see the faint pencil lines which I soon lost track of. This was a huge failure
Not that I am trying to shift blame but I think I might have had more success if I had thicker more lightly pigmented paints. Maybe I am kidding myself. I am going to give it another try using pastels on black paper. We'll see how that works....then I give up.
It's trying things that leads us to new discoveries. I wonder if you could have done a monochrome scene this way--all grays and white against the black background.
ReplyDeleteI would say yes but unless there is a massive amount of color, I'm rarely interested
DeleteIf you flip it upside down the green looks like leaves, the blue is now at the bottom which seems to ground it.
