Learning Journal #2

Summary

                     This time I decided to paint a dog model.  I choose the colors light orange, tan, pink, black, gold, and green.  First I painted the main fur orange.  Then I painted the belly tan with some black shadows.  The colors for the collar were green and gold, which was fun together.  The paws were painted black and so was the hair on top of its head.  Then I painted the eyes blue and let it dry over night.  The next day I did a second layer of paint.  Though this time I used a detail brush at the end to try to fix mistakes.


Reflection

My thoughts on how it went were very good.  I was very happy that all the colors came together well.  Second, I think that I have improved since the fish one but I still need some work.  I think that I need to spend more time on the smaller details to make it look better.  I am enjoying this so much because it allows me to get a creative vibe into my life.  I love to paint sculptures but I want to get a lot better at it.  Also, compared to the fish I have done pretty well.  I can not wait to see how I do on my next sculpture.  I think this is going good for now.
