As one of my daily paintings streamed live on my Instagram, I painted a one hour gouache study of a tube of paint, to show how I create a realistic still-life.
Focussing on capturing the direction of light hitting the object and observing reflected colour, I work to give the paint tube a three-dimensional quality, and the illusion of depth and space.
