Perspective Pet Shop

Two vanishing points were established to help build the proper perspective for the buildings. Windows and doors were added using the same vanishing points and color was added. It was decided that the sun would come from the left and behind leaving the shadows on the bottom and the right. For the shadowy areas I tried to throw a little light up from the area around it. Where the building meets the street I used an opaque brush with a lighten setting and a gray color. For the areas where the sun was hitting I used a yellowish opaque lighten brush to add some color.

  The turtle tank was an attempt to understand how light works in water. It will take much more practice to get there, but I'm glad I did it.
