I confess I have attended an oil painting class from last October.
Most diffcult thing is making some beautiful colors from mixing 12 color paints. Today I drew and painted some Japanese toyes like paper baloon, spined top, horse shaped doll and so on. It is not completed and put on a heater in front of me now.
The colour is almost primary color. So it is not so beutiful. Whereas other class mates are good at painting very much. Every time I am disapointed by my painting compare to other's.
