This month was my friend's turn to choose a subject for our monthly challenge. The challenge involves drawing or painting a mirror up against a background (e.g. a wall) with a light over-head. We also have to include reflections as our main focal point.
I chose to go with a corner in my bathroom with only some of what's being reflected on the right with more showing in the reflection. I do not get into all the composition rules or elements of design but instead just try to record what I see without worrying about rules and guidelines. Sometimes my results might fit the typical rules but it's not because I plan it that way.
Honestly with this..........I doubt I achieved what my friend was hoping for with regards to the reflections being THE focal point. Regardless, this was fun to do and quite a challenge with perspective with all the angles involved. The fancy light fixture above the mirror was tricky so I basically just suggested it without getting too fussy for fear of feeling overwhelmed.
