spatial optical exercise

Daily watercolor painting #135
8x8 watercolor on coldpress
Today's painting goal is to create a simple design with few hues that illustrates optical illusions of spatial depth. The blades of grass have similar value however they appear to come forward against the dark background and recede in space against the white background. To further the spatial range, more flower and grass clusters were depicted on a smaller scale.
