I decided to try out my acrylic paints using a glass object that I thought was an apple. It was giving me a hell of a time, and not until I finished the painting did I remember that it was a red pepper and not an apple. No wonder I was having a hard time with getting the shape right, my eye is trying to draw an apple while my brain is remembering that all the glass objects are vegetables and not fruits. Duh! The pencil sketch came after I remembered what it was supposed to be, and after watching an instructional video on youtube, on how to hold a pencil and sketch quickly. And what's cool is that I was sitting pretty far away from the object and yet the drawing came out nice and big.
