Both of these painted in one class period, during about a 30 minute time limit, with student grade acrylics on tagboard...
Both efforts were with complementary colors...the first blue and orange, the second yellow-orange and blue-violet...plus white and black. The second work used a day time mountain lake reference...the idea was for students to imbue a mood using a color harmony. Beginning with yellow-orange slowly turning violet and dark values as everything neared the viewer's eye. It is by design not so realistic...but as a step by step to teach concepts. Both demos had the students looking at various references, and putting together their own narrative respective to asymmetry and viewpoint perspective. I can say that I never heard this class work so intently and focused as I have this last day on their painting unit...
