Step 4

Sorry, no picture today. I forgot to take my camera to class last night. 

We covered quite a lot - Moya helped me fix the banana, softening the sharp line, and Des helped me with the satsuma - he gave the satsuma peel a nice rounded feel, which I tried to reproduce on the smaller part of peel, but not quite as successfully. What I found the hardest was mixing the right colour for the shadow part of the peel and I felt that my brush was too big for the detailed work.

Next week - we'll put highlights on everything, then we'll finish the shadows and background, and we'll be all done!

After that, I think I'll try to do another still life at home, without any help from my 2 teachers!
