parts white and a color) 2) use 3 values (white, middle and fully saturated color) to represent a box form, assigning the most appropriate value to each plane (based on observation) 3) use of 5 values of mixed paint to represent illumination and form in the observed subject (simple box still life) |

Suggestions |
* look at the planes, spaces and shape areas of your subject
and the values-
* mix paint to reproduce values seen – start w three values, gradually increase * simplify areas so that they can be depicted through one value area. * mix, then paint. You may mix more as you begin to paint, but start by looking carefully at your subject and mixing the paint you think you will need. |
