Still Life - Final Piece
The following piece was produced in 3 hours 30 minutes on brown A3 paper with pastels.
Looking at the piece as a composition we can see that the rule of thirds have been applied as the plant hits the top left of the piece, we can also see foreshortening happening as the orange floor narrows inwards this implies depth within the piece.
As an arrangement no objects appear to be kissing along with a balance in values as the warm orange is countered with the blue walls and blue plant, this increases the harmony within the piece.
We can see shadows are being cast to the right of the page implying that the light source is to the left, we're also able to see some highlights on the vase and fruits which moves us onto the materials.
The natural objects such as the fruits don't reflect a large amount where as the man made materials such as the kettle reflects most objects in sight, this establishes form with in the piece.
Constructively the perspective of the pots seems off as they slant slightly to the right, the lid of the kettle also requires some fixing as the ellipsis is off.
More contrast should be added to the grapes in order to increase the depth within them, the same can be said for the shadows in the piece as they all appear to be the same saturation.
