The still life set up with Ingrid Christensen

Understanding the still life set up is very complicated and sometimes it seems hours go into setting up a still life, Yes thats me; I am so picky, I overthink.  As we try to convey the shadow forms and their relationship to the light and shapes of the set up,  and then trying to make a pretty picture is time consuming.   In this workshop we explored paintings of still life set ups and various artists works.  

It was a great exercise and happy to note everyone thought it was useful and of course our with our very own Ingrid Christensen from Calgary was here to guide us and show us the light, haha shadow!
