White Pot and Aperture


A3, 30x40cm

The result of my latest watercolor class.
To be remembered: day light means cold color on objects and warm shadows.

A friend of mine is a professional photographer. We discussed today the aperture and how it affected the photo image. 
I can proudly announce that this photo was done by me with understanding of aperture and blur effects all around this wonderful "the spring is here!" proof. Hopefully, I will not forget this photo lesson untill my next outdoor shooting:-))

  1. Hi Irina. Good job on both the painting and the photo! I've not had any painting classes - I have read books and looked at other peoples' art so the information about daylight being cold or cool is opposite of what I would have thought! :-) Cool colors, warm shadows!

    My camera will display the aperture but have no idea how it's changed! :-) I'm happy that it focuses - automatically! But, I DID know that aperture affected focus in a photo. That's all that I know about that stuff.

  4. Gry, thank you to the master photographer!
    Ken, classes are great, my plan is to learn as much as I can, then forget it and start drawing what I want ;-))
    As for aperture, I am hopeless, but with Moscow blog, I need to correspond to my photobloggers- friends.
    Thank you to lovely India!
    Manon, thank you!

  5. Irina, your "White pot" and "Aperture" are both really well done! I know very well how difficult is to learn painting. I started in 2004 and now after 6 years I'm still taking lessons of watercolors. You know....we always want to improve!! Best regards! Tito.

  7. Tito, painting is such a pleasure in itself, that I am ready to study my whole life just to have the opportunity to enjoy the process. But if I need 6 years to do it like you do, then I am ready to be patient!
    Carmen, thank you so much! And happy spring to you too.
