Candy Still Life

11"x14"

Colored Pencil, Watercolor, and Ink on Printmaking Paper

For this artwork what drove it was not just the assignment, but the mixed media we were able to use. I was able to express this freedom by using what ever colors I wanted. In attempt to make these look like spheres but still use many colors, I obviously went from brightest to darkest kind of colors. Example being using yellow for highlights and red for shadows.

The materials I used were colored pencils, marker, and watercolor. This allowed me to be able to find which material I really enjoy using.

Throughout this process I found the assignment very easy. The blending, highlights, and shadows were just different colors, not dark graphite like I am used to. These assignments really bring out the creativity I have, forcing me to really think outside the box.
