Lesson 2 : Painting Workshop
During the lesson, I tried to draw different primary colours, secondary colours, tertiary colours and gradation colours.
I used watercolours to draw the apple image.
The Process :
Step 1 : Draw the draft of the apple's structure
Step 2 : Use main colours, like red, yellow, purple, and so on, to paint the apple
Step 3 : Start to paint the background blue colour
Step 4 : Draw the shadows of the apple
The Tools ( Brushes ) & Colours :
