Oil Painting lesson with Gregory Smith

Greg told me there’s something wrong with the plain these objects are sitting on. 

Compared to the left side, for example, the right side looked too flat, lacking the depth. It looked as if my perspective was a bit too low. 

The reason for that was, the baseline of the two objects on the right was too straight. So, I painted them so that they are more curved. That made my eye level higher, creating depth of the plain. 

Then I put a finishing touch to other objects.  

So, that’s it. The mask was very tricky, but, I’ve learned a lot.
