Description One of my finals last quarter for Fudementals of Painting. An all white still life. The intention was to paint the light and shadows. The image wraps around to the sides as well, though you can't see it in the picture. As for the picture itself, I'm sorry about the crappy camera-phone quality as I took the picture with one. It was rushed in the end and some parts were done looking at a photo. But overall, for my second ever oil paint on canvas I'm happy with it. =^^= Oils rock!

Oil on 30"x40" canvas.

Objects in the painting: Watering can, various flower pots & a sheet.

Wow...

:0) I REALLY hate painting white stuff...Gah, I've done it before. And I'm a strictly watercolor person when it comes to paints.

All hail the Great Painter of White.

wow!! This is incredibly well done! White is a really hard colour to get right in the lighting department. I love how you did it. Especially the folds. for sure!

Wow, sweet work Tiinalina. If it's two things I suck at art-wise, it's painting and folds, so you've impressed me on both accounts.

I wish it was a little bigger picture though, but I'll deal.

I used to think the same thing about myself. I would avoid the oil paint section of the art store like the plague. It took a crazy ambitious teacher to get me to finally try them.

Pencil still is still my favorite, but I'd suggest just picking up a few colors of an inexpensive brand and experamenting with oils. You may surprise yourself.
