For this pumpkin painting my limitation was using the sticks that come with the canvas to paint the pumpkins. Obviously it is an unfinished project it is a snapshot. This limitations caused many problems like trying to get enough paint from the stick to the painting. It was also difficult to get different colors to mix and create shading.
For this project I decided to paint pumpkins and gourds to go with fall and fall theme. When I decide to paint this I thought hard about what I could do as a limitation. Then I saw the sticks that you use to tighten the canvas and I thought "Aha that would be difficult to paint with" so I started and I learned many different techniques to paint with the sticks. I used some of the mistakes in the techniques as a learning opportunity. I felt I responded well to the challenges of this painting. At times I over blended and changed it in the next so I have learned a lot from this project. |
