Art Lesson #3

A “Grid” Time will be Had by All…
Whether you are new to art, new to another medium, or an old pro that is having a creative brain cramp, here is an idea for a painting that will get you going.
Divide your surface into some sort of a grid. Size and number might be determined by how much time you have on hand. Then decide on a motif to be carried through the grid. Look at the examples to see a few of the endless ways to proceed.
This project works well using analogous colors (colors that are next to each other on the color wheel, i.e.: yellow, yellow-green, green, green-blue, blue). You may want to add a pop of an accent with the complement (opposite on the color wheel) of one of the colors.
