Colour exercises

Ack, I'm a little embarrassed to post these, haha. These are all from my painting class where we've mostly worked on colour exercises and composition. Out of all of these I have to say I'm only pleased with maybe two of them, plus the camera mucked up the colours of most of the paintings. Speaking of which, I'm sorry for the crap quality pictures, hehe.

These two are actually two mini paintings on the same canvas that were kind of like an introduction to the colour and composition exercises, so technically these don't really count, haha.

The first exercise was to paint the colours reflecting off of a white object, my choice being an onion.

The second exercise was pretty much the same, but using an opaque coloured glass object (this one was the most frustrating to work with in my opinion).

Clear glass bottle exercise.

Transparent coloured glass exercise (blargh).
