wayne theabaud pencils

MY goals in this were to create a life looking pictutre of pencils. I accompished them by using pastels to make my colors pop. My painting is about shadows and different colors. The most difficult thing i had to face was doing my shadows. I met the challenge by mixing different colors to create a good looking shadow to reflect the light. I think my painting really works on the pencils with thte different shades of color. I have learned to mix colors to make a color that i want. Taylor really helped me with the shadows and to grasp the idea of them. If i had a do over i think i would mix the shadows wiht different colors. The thing i feel best about is my colors in the pencils, i feel like they really pop and make the drawing look good.
