Monochromatic Masterpiece

In this assignment, I could paint values with depth rather than worrying as much about color. The use of gray scale tones was used to ass different shades and accentuate certain areas. The original painting, which was of a still-life allowed me to add areas of lights to darks depending on where the light source hit. The upper left corner, which represents the lighting caused the left side of my depiction to be shades lighter than those of the right. To accentuate the table, value was added the the items on the table to show that they were made to stand out. Overall, this assignment left room for options in how the approach taken to create a solid piece.
