Title: Greek Inspiration
What this picture doesn't show is that the background has varying shades in the back and it also looks lighter in the photo. That was unintentional as I mixed colors to make this background. It is actually very close to the shade I was thinking of back when I came up with the idea. Also, I just realized that taking the picture with a blue blanket in back was probably not the best place but I'm not trying to be professional here.
Why call it Greek Inspiration? Because I was actually looking at an ancient Greek pot when I came up with the idea back at the exhibition preview I mentioned earlier. It's not a copy of what I saw but the main concept is the same. Though they used a lot of rustic orange, I decided to have a blue background to make it more contemporary.
The lines were a lot harder to paint than I thought. But that's one thing I know I can practice at home to improve on.
Things I've Learned
1. I have already improved on having the paint go where I want it to (a problem I mentioned with the first painting.
2. Though it sounds simple enough, painting lines isn't exactly a walk in the park.
3. White paint is my friend when trying to get a lighter shade.
