I-Hsing Teapot and Japanese Lanterns

 
I-Hsing Teapot and Japanese Lanterns 8x8 oil
 
I started taking a new class - Still life in Oil with Trish Gibbs.  We are exploring a number of still life techniques.  The first was Alla Prima.  The second used an imprimatur of umber with wipe-outs and umber additions. I did this one at home and it was fun - it felt like drawing with a brush and a small one at that!  The next step is to let it dry and apply transparent glazes.
 
In the next class we will be doing a grisaille - I can't wait!
