Block Study 10/19/2010 - studying is hard and so is learning color


Today's block study was done quickly. The sun is now best on my porch about 1:30. I exaggerated the color that was reflecting on the blue block. The darkest was the background of the porch. The lightest was the tabletop. The dullest was the darkest shadow side part of the yellow orange block. The lightest part of the blue block was warm. The yellow orange top in sunlight was very warm.
The shadows cast by the block were dull and cool.
I learned this weekend when you have a bright area, you want to lay the color on top of it. If it is very dull, you want to mix at least color and mix it.
Remember to go between warm and cool in the an overcast or foggy landscape.
