This is a still life of a skull, leaves, and a plastic bag. I really wanted to do more outdoor painting, but it was way too rainy and cold in Portland. So my friend and I decided to paint a still life instead. We worked on this for about 9 hours total. I actually had a lot of fun painting this. It gave me a chance to take my time and not be rushed by the weather and lighting conditions. I need to do more still lifes. It helped me to focus on the subtleties and tonal changes of the values. I'll definitely bring what I learned to the outdoors!
