January 30, Yellow Brushstroke Study #1- Auction!

It's not really the first color study, but again, I had a hard time thinking of a title for this one.  And this WAS a demo during class on how to paint using one brushstroke for each color, which is an excellent tool for helping painters slow down and really look at what they are doing.  When you have to plan your strokes, you tend to be more careful and attentive to how you lay down your paint, and your strokes look much more purposeful and have more power.  You also look more closely at the color and tend to see those tender slight variations on a color, like the interior creamy whites in this mug~  so FUN!  I love it!
