La valeur du monochrome : peindre une nature morte à l'aquarelle avec une seule couleur

I’m have struggled with depictions of glass but you have done a great job here! Love this.

Oh I love this! I especially think the classic use of the watermelon in 3 shapes (Halved, cubed, and sliced) adds great interest while keeping it cohesive! The lighting is clear, and the bright plate is beautifully reflected in the glass. Excellent use of using your range effectively too, the glass edging and depth of the shadows look perfectly balanced in contrast with the various midtones of the watermelon flesh, background, and tablecloth. Well done! Also, off topic, but your Burnt Umber value scale (beautifully done BTW) reminds me of a latte or chocolate. Mmm, haha.

Thank you so much for your kind critique. I really enjoyed your class!

Thank you for this fun class. I enjoyed putting together a composition and using just one color for the painting. <img srcset="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/a6b0ff10cb007db2a110d086e8bd2216/3fbe72ff.jpg 600w, https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/a6b0ff10cb007db2a110d086e8bd2216/3fbe72ff.jpg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/project/a6b0ff10cb007db2a110d086e8bd2216/3fbe72ff.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="Monochrome still life - image 1 - student project">
