I am participating in the event called "100 Days" (www.onehundreddays.net) . Artists of all kinds (painters, photographers, writers) will be creating something every day for 100 days and blogging about their experiences along the way. I will be drawing and paintng and posting on this blog what I have created. This is my very first time blogging, so I look forward to the challenges ahead.

Day 19
Day 19- "A Few Glass Vases" (7x8" Charcoal on Canvas) It is a really hot day today and thought it would be good to work inside, because of the unbearable weather. I decided to try an experiment on some grey unprimed canvas that was given to me. I looked around my classroom and grabbed a few glass vases off the shelf. I thought I would try a value study using acrylic paint, with just black and white. However, the unprimed canvas made this nearly impossible to paint on. I really wanted to have the grey canvas as a value so I grabbed some charcoal and this is what it ended up looking like. It is funny that I never thought of using charcoal on canvas. It was interesting to try.
