Monte's Things


Monte's Things
6x8"
Oil


Here is this week's DPW Challenge. I had to plan my painting and count the shapes. Then I was supposed to use one brush stroke for each shape. I planned 18 strokes. The pink bone took six with two pale pink highlights. It actually took 22 strokes to do the painting of the objects. I did not do the background but painted on a toned canvas leaving the background untouched. These Challenges are so good for me. I might try this again, but I will bend the rules a little next time, giving myself some more freedom.
