a sense of place

i liked doing this painting because i was really amused by the ball things. i liked how this one turned out, i think that this painting was good because its accurate and also because it does create a mood and i wanted the first thing that you see to be the ball things and i think that its the first thing that you see.

white objects painting

i think that this painting turned out ok. i like how the fabric turned out but not really the mugs. the mugs don't really look 3D and hat be bceasue of the angle that iwas lookin at them from. other tahn that i lke how this turned out for the first painting.

final reflection

i think i that i have progresses in many areas. in use of color i have learned how to mix colors to make them more accurate and how to use color to create a sense of depth. i have learned for example in my fruit painting when i first began i learned how to do shadows and hi lights and now i have learned from the surface and texture painting how to make things 3D. i have also learned how to make a good composition. i have learned how to place things so that it looks balanced and something interesting to look at.with the surface and texture painting i think i have progresses but it is still no tot the best of my ability i can do better and i will continue to progress in that area.

history of oil painting

oil painting has been around for centuries, so therefore there have been many different types of people to use this method of painting. it all began in 1410 with Huybrecht and Jan eyck, they made oil paints it was made of pigment and linseed oil along with other kinds of oils . the secret of oil paint didn't get out until 1440. but it is said that many civilization used oils before oil paints were made to paint. there were places such as Greece, Rome and Egypt that use these oil paints to create their own paintings. the civilizations that used theses paints benefited form it. there art collection has expanded and a lot of their art is widely known from some of the most famous artists. over time what these artist painted changed. centuries ago it was people and nature now a days it can be anything. it can be abstract or a still life. still life's are the ones that are mainly used now a days. a still life is the one that i personally see more often,and so i think they are the ones to be used more often.
