Paintings

Our second Indonesian Art project is to draw a unique painting. We looked at two famous Indonesian artists, Gunarsa and Krijono. The paintings of the two artists are completely different, one uses thick lines with bright colours, the other one uses thin lines to draw, the colour is not as bright.
We had to draw something unique, and we're also supposed to use colours that's not realistic, for example, instead of painting a tree green and brown, we might use white on a black background. I drew part of a pond, with fallen leaves, a lotus, a fallen flower, and fish. The pond was supposed to be violet, but the colours I mixed were not good... the lotus is green, the leaves blue, the fishes red and orange, and the ground a light brown. I need to improve on mixing the same colour, because the violet I mixed were different everytime, making the painting weird...
