So this is Curmudgeon the Squirrel. Why I choose the name Curmudgeon, I don't know, it popped into my head as I was drawing him. To me it's ironic, because he's not curmudgeous at all. Quite cute, actually. Here is my progroess on my Apple painting. You can see how I'm making an apple look round with different shades of red, orange and blue. Blue? Yes, there is blue on the dark side of the apple. It's interesting to learn about color theory. You don't just add black to a color to make it darker. On the light side of the apple it goes from white, yellow-white, yellow-orange, orange, orange-red, red, pure red. On the dark side of the apple it's red - dark red, and then adding in an increasing amount of a purple-blue.
