This is my 12x9 inch painting for the precisionism project. I found these chains and buttons backstage in the auditorium. I thought they looked cool. I made the frames by laying down tap and taping it off into three different sized spaces. I then sketched out the design and painted it using acrylic paint. I did many layers in order to make everything seem flat and 2D. I used a gradient on the pipe to pull in the viewer's eyes and establish a focal point. I had several problems with the larger chain. It was too flat and even I couldn't tell what it was. I used little white lines to establish detail. I hate precisionism and never want to do it again. I really like the way the colors came together and the way the lines came out.
