Circles
Whatever it means to you: everything goes in circles.
Well I finally made it to the point where I’m considering learning how to paint, instead of just painting. So I went online, and took the advice of some e-art-classes and decided to begin practicing painting spheres.
I painted the spheres in order, from right-to-left, top-to-bottom, so you can see my development (for better or worse) as time went on. For the record, however, I spent approximately 30 minutes on the first circle and just 5 on the last, so there was definitely some improvement in my ability to paint spheres quickly.
My biggest concern was with the shadows. In general, I imagined light shining a different direction for many of the spheres, so they aren’t all consistent, but this was intentional. On the other hand, even if you look at each sphere individually, the shadows look strange. Ah well.
I think it’s a good job for my third solo painting.
