BAL Mixed Media (May and June 2015)

This has the acrylic under painting with the clear gesso on top.  I have started working with colored pencil, especially on the top left jug and in the areas around it as well as below the table.

I used white gouache for highlights (if using acrylic use white acrylic).  I then added a dark purple to the background allowing the yellow to show through in some areas.

I added some more darks and am continuing to refine this leaf with the 4 colors (red, yellow, blue, white).

I have gotten the base down and have barely begun refining and adding detail using the 4 colors (red, yellow, blue, white).

This is the caulk painting with a layer of acrylic and on top of that the clear gesso (so I can add colored pencil next).
