I had meant to get more photos in between beginning and end, but forgot!!!
You can see here the vibrancy of the colors I used, but there really isn't much punch in this painting.
After I added in black lines to outline each shape, you can see how different and vibrant the painting looks. Certainly not my usual colors (what's up with that!).
I probably should not be so dark in the orange part of the sky area, but, oh well. This was a demo. Overall I'm happy with the outcome and I think the students impressed themselves with their final results!

Deb I had to laugh when I read that you 'forgot' to take more photos in between ... thats me also. I get so involved in the painting that it completely slips my mind. I really like how you handled this one. I love the black lines you've added. I'd say this was a winner and I can see where your students were impressed. Good job Deb.
WOW! You must have been hungry for color when you painted this, Deb :) Really beautiful and I like the addition of the outlines in ink or black pen :) I, too, would like to see a paler orange in the sky but it does work with the boldness of the other colors. Wish I could have come by today :(
Thanks Nancy and Rhonda. It was fun to do - and so different from the way that I usually paint!
The black outlines make such a huge difference. I love the results.
