Sunflower Painting

LI: To paint a still life of sunflowers in the style of Vincent Van Gogh

Last week we painted sunflowers! The style we based our paintings of was the style of, 'Vincent Van Gogh'. We had to think about the tone, shading, and lighting to make the painting more realistic. We mixed and blended colour to make different shades of the same colour. The colours we used were copper, mustard, yellow, black and white. I used blue to colour the vase. The technique we used to paint was dabbing. To make it look real we only painted in one direction. What i liked most was painting the petals.
