  This still life acrylic painting is of a tall and slender metal cylinder with a cone shape top, two old and faded flowers, a mini green gourd and some plastic cranberries.  Again I first painted the general shapes and then moved to the specific highlights. 

   What I learned through this lesson was that I should first begin to paint the general shapes of the subjects before moving to the specifics.

   My reaction to this painting is that it is very dark and seems to be aged.  Both of the flowers have no real bright vivid colors that pop out. Also the flower in the back seems dead and dry.  Also my gourd in the front of my painting has no other colors besides various shades of green, some white, and a little brown and red.
