Pastel Still Life Project
When I planned my composition for this pastel still life I
considered the positive and negative space. I chose to position my items in a
way that the foreground didn't have much in it, and the background had a lot of
color and life.I did this using a thumbnail sketch.A thumbnail sketch is a
drawing that is done to plan the composition of your space. You have the option
to move your "window" of vision around, and decide the best angle and
place to put your objects at. After I planned my composition I had to work on
making my objects look more realistic. I made my items appear to be three
dimensional by shading my objects. Changing value and adding shadows throughout
the still life adds depth to it. When depth is added to a drawing it appears to
come off the paper and gives it a realistic feeling.The shading couldn't be
done without my light source though.The light source in my painting came from
the background. It cast shadows in the foreground of my composition and helped
create the three dimensional effect.
