Demo Description
This demonstration will show my painting method in using a limited colour palette to achieve a natural still life. What I perceive as “honesty” and putting a contemporary twist to the still life. I will be painting some everyday objects like a fruit and a mug on a tea towel from my living room side cupboards. My painting demonstration gives you some insights on how you can achieve a beautiful still life with everyday objects using a limited colour palette in your everyday setting. I will be painting on a pochade box.
