Colour Pencil - Food
Colour Pencil - Food
A popular subject of the Pop Art movement was food! So we are going to be using food as our subject matter to complete a colour pencil study.
You can choose to select a photograph already taken of some lollies or you can do your own photograph [either at home or at school] It is REALLY important to have good natural lighting and a plain background. At school use the small lightboxes to do your photograph.
Here are some Artist examples of food for inspiration [drawings and paintings]
