Week 9

Read Chapter 11: Light's Changing Show (Color and Light)

Read pgs 78-95 (Graphic LA)

From Chapter 11: Light's Changing Show (Color and Light), I learned something about serial painting and the process of paining. Color and light is always working together especially on painting, and we need to keep in mind. This chapter is supposed to gather all of the knowledge from previous chapters and apply for painting, I think. Color and light is changing depending on places, time, and so on. Also, there were some tips for serial painting. I haven't painted landscape as serial painting yet, but I will keep the tips in my mind to be a better serial painter for the near future.

From Graphic LA, I learned that tone and value are important for painting. And interpreting the objects I wanna draw is also important. Whenever I draw something, I learned that designing is more important than copying it exactly. This book says the exact same thing. 

Here are the examples for today's journal
