Final Reflection

Use of color: I've made alot of progress in use my of color. My white objects painting was extremely challenging for me and even though i wasnt able to finish it it taught me alot about how to use color in oil painting. In my white objects painting i struggled alot with finding the finding the exact color of the objects, i tried layering colors and exaggerated colors but in the end was still not satisfied. After that painting however i was able to use both layering colors, and mixing colors to create the colors i wanted. Use of composition: I feel like i came into this course with a good understanding and ability to create good compositions. I was able to experiment more with different kinds of setups, types of objects, and textures,
My ability to create the illusion of different surfaces and textures: In my white objects painting my objects where very 2 dimensional. They were more outlined and My use of light was weak. As i went on my use of light and my ability to create 3 dimensional looking objects improved.In my second painting I was able to create surfaces that appeared transparent, and smooth, and fabrics.
My ability to create the illusion of space and depth: In my surface and texture painting I was able to create a very good illusion of depth. I came into the class with a good understanding of space and depth. I struggled in my white objects painting but after that i really got in the hang of oil painting in general which helped bring out my strengths
