{"product_id":"three-simple-things-preview","title":"Three Simple Things - Preview","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this little project we’ll begin to loosen up and let go, bringing together a wooden pear, an orange block and a fresh apple in a softer, more atmospheric way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than carefully painting each object separately, I’ll show you how to start with a gentle wash across the whole composition and then gradually build the subjects through layers of transparent colour. It’s a technique I often enjoy using in my sketchbooks and it creates a wonderfully light, ethereal feeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe’ll mix our colours first, work with glazing and drying between layers, then introduce just enough sharper detail to give the objects structure without losing that lovely softness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a perfect short project for a busy day and a really nice bridge between careful exercises and freer painting. You don’t need to use my subjects either – once you understand the approach, you can choose three simple things of your own and have fun experimenting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Begin With Billy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56889058230658,"sku":"three-simple-things-preview","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/4587\/4136\/files\/Three_Simple_Things_Thumb_4bebaea7-92b7-47a3-83ad-526bcf528f24.jpg?v=1788501151","url":"https:\/\/billyshowell.com\/products\/three-simple-things-preview","provider":"Billy Showell School of Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
