Think Color, push it

The Teacups Are Back


I had a lot of interest in a LARGE watercolor sketch I did of teacups last year in my 365 Days of Drawing Challenge to myself.

I could have sold that sketch 10 times over.

I thought it would be interesting to see how the cups would look painted in oil on a very smooth board. So yesterday I re visited them.

MY THOUGHTS;

KEEP CUPS IN GOOD DRAWING

KEEP THE COLORS CLEAN

COLOR RAW IN PLACES

GREYED IN OTHERS

PAINT SMOOTH IN PLACES

ROUGHER IN OTHERS

PUSH COLOR HARMONY

I am curious to see if these cups are as successful.
