Beautiful master copy of a Claude Monet by one of my painting students! Lots of layering and hard work went into this study!

Student's first still life in oil. Started with a bistre of raw umber. Then fully rendering the pitcher with a raw umber and white tonal scale. A simple limited color palette was used for the apple using cad. red, alizaron, cad. yellow and ultramarine. 

Check out these amazing pastel drawings from my teen drawing class! Pastel on black paper, students focused on tone and finding subtle color in the white feathers.

Having a great time teaching through color mixology!
