acrylic paintings from real life study

Two weeks ago, I set up some lemons on the table for the teen class to do a drawing study.



First I showed them how to measure for proportion on their paper from real life compositions.

Then we went over blocking in their darks and lights in an underpainting. 

They even did their background in the complimentary color, purple.

Then over two classes, a total of 3 hours, they created these lovely works of a couple of lemons.

I love them.

There is one more to come, the student was sick this week so unfortunately her work is not complete. 

But as you can see, there isn't a lemon in the bunch. These works are simply amazing. 

I am so proud of them.
