White Objects Thumbnail Sketches

These are the possible compositions for my oil painting.  I chose the middle one because it was very close up, and i can concentrate on getting the correct shading, and not have to worry about doing many different objects.  I think that it is the easiest, and i am going to have the easiest time doing it, and not have to struggle through it.  It will really help me learn basic techniques, so i can maybe try a harder set-up the next time, and feel more confident about tackling it.
