Still Life - Focus on Masses



Okay, so here's my study attempt with acrylics focusing on painting masses, not lines. Had a rough, painted over canvas and a photo of a pretty bouquet (not my usual m.o.). Anyway, it had good shadows so for this exercise, it worked.

Just really worked on masses of lights and darks and soft edges until the end. I can see how this technique, focus is really going to be helpful in the long run.
