The idea is to take the inside-most object in your painting, thinking of a still life of only one object, let's say an apple, will be easiest. Start by roughing in the apple (I usually go dark to light), then as you rough in the background, reshape the apple with your background paint strokes. If you get some mixing as the background paint goes over the apple paint, don't worry, that will enhance the painterly look. But be careful to wipe your brush after each stroke, when you are painting one color over another, so you don't end up muddying everything. <br /><br />If you have more than one object, start with the object that touches the most number of other objects, and then go to the object that touches the next most other objects, etc., until you reach the background, reshaping each object as you paint around it.<br /><br />Does that make sense?Bobbi Heathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09235452539131042733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3800363886324176198.post-89520018911236536832010-02-11T15:04:17.607-05:002010-02-11T15:04:17.607-05:00Hello, Is it too late to ask for another explainat...Hello, Is it too late to ask for another explaination of the concept of painting inside out using the negitive space that was taught at your workshop. I think I understand it, but would appreciate additional review.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3800363886324176198.post-58635253054958367172009-11-04T14:17:53.023-05:002009-11-04T14:17:53.023-05:00Great post on Carol's methods.
