Black Object Painting

• My goals and intentions for this piece were to create shapes and object that I have never done before and create the color reflection in the objects.
• I accomplished my goals by looking carefully at the reflected colors and looking at the shape of each part of each object.
• I was surprised at how difficult it is to create the horse and all of the details on the horse.
• The most difficult challenge was to create the horse and see the shapes of the bubbles in the crystal ball.
• I meet that challenge by breaking dow each part of the objects and looking at the individual colors.
• I experienced the shift from right brain to left by focusing on the shapes and reflection of each object and its colors.
• This piece really works with the crystal ball and the horse.
• An artist that inspired me was Henry Stinson because of his simple strokes and colors that from a distance turn into objects.
• Something I learned going into my next painting is how to look at the reflections and paint things that are clear.
• If I had a do-over I would add more detail to the flower.
• I feel that the best things are the crystal ball and the horse.
