My sister Alex and I went to a painting class while we were in town for Christmas. Alex is a regular and I have always enjoyed being artistic. But this class is extra special because you can bring your own wine. Woot!
The before pic...
Some base layer blending:..
No Alex! Don't drink that!
(this is a reenactment of when Al almost mistook her paint brush water cup for her wine glass)
Concentration. Shading this starfish to look 3D was the hardest part.
Then we added the ocean water. This technique was my favorite. We put lots of paint on a knife, globbed it on the top half of the canvas, and voila! Ocean water.
All that was left was some shadowing and we were done!
Here's Alex's finished product...
And mine...
A group shot of the class...
We aren't quite sure what happened to the girl in the bottom of the pic.
David said it was because she drank beer instead of wine. haha.
SO much fun! We're definitely doing that again :D
