Lesson 2: Shape



Today Megan started with a demonstration that focused on shape while painting with a palette knife. I too focused on shape but started with line and quickly moved to emphasize the forms of the various items (old cameras, radios, phones, cans etc.) I used only blue, yellow, orange and white. The limited number of colours unified the odd shapes. I plan to add more white and emphasize the darks as well.

Such a kaleidescope of lines - ovals, rectangles, squares, circles, cylinders, split moons, oblongs. I can imagine the fun you must have experienced working with all these shapes. It is so different from anything I've seen you do before,except for your experiments with Hundertwasser.
Looks like they are all having a party!!
