@shahin sparkling. You used a blue shadow below the orange saucer. Complementary colors! 😀. Do you draw out the ellipses on the cup and saucer before painting? If not how to do paint them in so clean and dimensionally correct?
Your “deconstruction” swatches seem to ride on the surface of the canvas. That gives an interesting 2D-3D effect to the painting. I’d be interested in seeing the painting before you deconstruct the edges.
@shahin I like it very much. It's funny, I actually had just started a small coffee-themed painting over the weekend. (Coffee roasting and espresso-making are my other hobbies besides painting.) If it turns out well, I'll have to post it.
@GTO lol,....complimentary this and that,.... one day I'll learn what the hell you're saying, don't give up hope on me. no, i don't draw anything. doesn't work for me. especially on round shapes like rims. instead, I have a tendency to begin my strokes freely from the center of things; the rims and alike. think of it as starting a seed in the center of something and letting it expand from all around. like painting an apple. I don't draw the round outer shapes, I simply begin from the inside of the apple. shapes comeout much more solid.
