Purple + purple + yellow..............
I always find it hard to use these colors, the purples are not my favorites. But, I decided to give them a real try this year, and so far I've made three different pieces.The first one I did the day after drawing and painting lots of veggies, so it felt natural to do a turnip.
I couldn't resist adding a bit of green to it, and therefore I felt like cheating. I had to make another one.
The next one is a pair of cups. It's so hard to use these colors, that the only thing I did was to make some splashes of color. I'm not particularly happy with this one, and there's nothing more to add.
The next one I'm really happy with. I used pastels and was pertty rough with the colors. I used a dip pen and ink to add some black lines and that's it. Funny pear, but I like it and it's much prettier in person.
Later on today, I will make one more try, using this weeks colors and then it's enough I think.
I will link this post to SOC 5.
all of them are awesome! but i think the turnip is my fave!

ReplyDeletewonderful illustrations Laila, and I would LOVE to own such a cup like you've drawn! seems like at least several of us had a hard time getting going with these colors this week.

ReplyDeleteI found this weeks colors quite challenging as well. All your creations turned out beautiful. I especially love the turnip and don't mind the green :).
ReplyDeletePurple is my favorite color but I seldom ever use it in my art! I love the pear...it has personality!
