Week Five: Composition & Lighting Effects

Mary T

       I wanted to do something different for this exercise, so I used this photo of the old family cabin up north. I used the tracing paper feature in Painter to quickly and somewhat sloppily sketch the main outlines of the objects, then used the colorpicker and painted with pastels and the "just add water" blender. I tried to show the sunshine effects with the curtains and the tablecloth.

      The two deer paintings on the wall were done by me when I was just a kid....and I still like them. I did a little extra tracing over them so that they would show up better.
