This was my painting from when we had to choose a spot within or around the classroom. I chose to be in front of the sink because I thought it would be a cool composition. I did the sink in blue because I wanted to add to the sort of damp atmosphere that surrounds the sink. My painter I'm following this week is Frederic Edwin Church and he was one of the members of the Hudson River School. His piece "The Iceberg" is overwhelming in a good way. The use of scale and color immediately caught my interest.
