Title: Paint Palette

Exercise: Set up a still life with a background that has some detail but is not too dominant. Using six to ten similar sized objects place them one at a time to create different compositions. Try and keep the framing the same with each shot and rearrange the items to change the composition. Consider each change and the effect any new additions have on the overall grouping.

Approach: This was an exercise I did several times using different groups of objects. While I was comfortable with creating the arrangements I couldn’t get the lighting right so it took a number of attempts to get something I was comfortable with.
