25 Stroke

  • In this artwork, I goal is to paint the ball with shadow by using 25 stroke, and I end up using 20 strokes.
  • I accomplished this work by sketching the shape first, and then use stroke to add color to it to express different values. 
  • My paint is about using shape and color to express the shape of the ball under light condition within 25 strokes.
  • The most difficult challenge is keeping the number of stroke low while considering about the color combination.
  • I meet the challenge by trying to keep brush on the canvas and pickup a lot of color each time.
  • The color choice of my painting is really appealing!
  • In next painting, I want to improve the detail to make it more elegant.
  • Lauren's painting is very good because gradual change of color indicate the light source. 
  • If I can, I will redo the edge of the ball and made a more dimensional shadow!
  • I feel best about the color I used, which looks very lovely.

Touching no edge

  • In this artwork, my goal is to paint the ball with shadow without touching edge: using different color to show different shadow and different dimension.
  • I accomplished this artwork by sketching the shape of the ball and shadow first, and then I used different colors to draw light, dark, and medium shadows. I left red line between each shadows to emphasize the difference.
  • My paint is about using colors to express the shape and dimension.
  • The most difficult challenge is keeping red line between each shadows, and making the shadow looks real.
  • I meet the challenge by using pencils to map out red line and modifying the shape and build up from before.
  • The overexposed region of right side looks very special, and I like the appearance of that region.
  • In next painting, I will try to make the red line more clear and obvious.
  • Genna's painting is appealing to me because the gradual change of color indicate the light source. 
  • If I can, I will redo the shadow of the ball, and making the red line more clear!
  • I feel best about the color chose of this painting.
