Chair Study



I'm practicing painting once again. I have a strong aversion to painting because it's not my strong suit. But I have keep practicing because light is such a useful tool in storytelling. I'm studying life and trying to become a better observer. Here is a rough painting I did from a chair in our kitchen. I was practicing a diffused lighting scenario. I was trying to focus on 3 elements in this painting:

1. Soft cast shadows
2. Contact shadows (should be dark)
3. local color

Cheers to practicing and getting stronger at painting!
