Next, I developed a colour scheme for the piece. I decided to go with colours that were vibrant and had a high contrast since I was going to produce my final concept on black paper. With the help of acrylic paint, I created several colour charts to help me understand light-dark contrast and help me create the illusion of depth. This helped me choose acrylic paint as one of my mediums.

The second step was to create a mini concept, which would help me choose various mediums that I wanted to use to create my final design. Apart from acrylic paint, I decided to use colour pencils since it was easy to transition from value to value while producing a smooth texture, similar to glass. I also used metallic markers to capture the texture of the foil or aluminum wrapping and labelling around the wine bottles.
