I’m fortunate
to have been able to get into a weekly class taught by Mark Daily. We’re working on still life right now. I love the outdoors and the landscape so this
is not something that I’m driven towards. But I understand that like figure
drawing much can be learned and applied towards my landscapes.
I placed a
piece of glass over purple card stock.
The lighting situation was a little difficult as it wasn’t a strong directional
light but a light that was overhead and threw shadows in different directions. Pretty
challenging for me.
The ornament
is one that was given to my grandmother by her grandmother over 100 years ago. I have
several ornaments that were hers that I treasure very much. I looked forward to spending the night
with her, cuddled up and listening to all her childhood memories that were tied
to those ornaments.
