Description

So this is an outlook of how I basically did the 'Shades of...Blue'

I'm doing a series of various colors, "Shades of..." I learned this style in my HS art class, our teacher told us to draw 3 things, anything, and basically to draw outlines around it, once the outlines meet and you can't draw anymore, that's when you do one big complete outline of the shapes that you have like what you see with the purple (I'm making it into mauve now, I don't like neon paints and I bought the wrong purple anyway lol). Once you do that, you then # from 1-8 between the outlines (when you get to 8, you repeat with #1 and so on until you get to the last line near the edge. Then you start off with whatever color you want, and with each new # you get too, you put drops (whatever # it falls on that's usually how many drops I do, but when it gets to the higher #'s, I just kind of put a lot of white in it to make it more noticeable of the change like you see with the blue) of white to make it lighter each time, or black to darken each time (with black, I suggest using a VERY small drop of black cause it gets dark too quick), or another color, for the blue, I would have used yellow with the blue to make it green in the end, and for this, I just would've darkened instead of lighten, not many colors are gd with a mauve color I think? But anyway, once it's complete like you see for the blue, it should look like an illusion almost. I don't remember what my art teacher called this, but I call it Illusionistic Abstract. Hope you enjoy, and I cant wait to start other colors :)

Need A LOT of freaking canvases. Oh but when I move to Atlantic City (hopefully), we're going to look for a 3 bedroom place to have one of the rooms as my art studio, but also a photography studio as well :)
