Value and color change challenge.

Took a little break from painting and blogging over the holiday. I must admit my home was looking like a certain reality tv show. I had my son home from school and made a commitment to try and live simple. Too much clutter. It is still a work in progress.

This coffee mug photo is the DPW challenge for this week. I first did a value only painting, then did the mug in blue. The challenge was to change the color of the objects and see if the value holds. The changes to the mug and grapes were ummm, very challenging.
