For my choses painting I decides to draw a landscape of a pond and trees in the background. I used color pencil instead of watercolors, and to make the drawing stand out more I blended colors together. For example for the grass in front of the pound I blended black, dark green and blue together. To make the drawing look more professional and realistic I then added white as my blending tool. The elements I used were color, contrast, lines, and blending to create a happy mood.
