The assessment piece for this unit was to make a still-life painting of the image/scene, however there is the fact that we were not told it was assessed until after we'd started sketching and drawn the basic backgrounds. The arguments started with the teacher after this signalled that we were quite reckless when we weren't graded, in this case we didn't really think about details or being careful, so please take that in mind.
I was viewing the image from a scene lower down, as the picture is taken from a slight bird-view and i sat at a normal view. I was also slightly to the left of this view angle. There are no images of my sketches as the first documentation is the image below.
With a slight brown background, which on the image came out green, and the banana a pale yellow and the doll a darker brown. However I made a mistake and made the pear far too green, and that the color green was not allowed too be used just yet.
Next step was filling in the other colors, and since we weren't allowed to use black, therefore I had to substitute it with the darkest color possible, purple. I also added some purple details on the milk carton and even drew the metal stick, however I was regretting this decision, I also darkened the background slightly. I also darkened the doll.
I regretted the darkening of the doll, so I lightened him up, and I also slightly darkened the background and painted over the metal bar. I straightened the edges of the milk carton and now all I have to do is wait for the painting to dry.
The tape on the edges was CAREFULLY removed, as to not rip any of the sides, however some of the color leaked through so the border is not completely straight. The banana is much paler than in real life due to the banana having been replaced later on the model and that banana was so vibrant and yellow, a color which did not fit into my drawing, therefore the pale banana was not edited.
