Artists pride themselves on being able to reproduce the world they have carefully observed.
In this lesson, you will search for special qualities of natural objects and see how they are represented in painting. Examine the Real Thing . Find either a real lemon or orange so you can look at it very carefully. Either by yourself or with a friend, describe at least 10 qualities about your real piece of fruit, and write down your observations. Think about qualities such as color, texture, and size.
