Terracotta Arches and Blue Lines

Terracotta arches rise across a pale plaster surface beside narrow cobalt lines and broad blue shapes. The paint has uneven edges, small cracks and raised areas that catch the light, giving the flat composition a physical feel. Warm orange forms occupy the sides and centre, while the blue marks create tall breaks between them.

The largest arch on the left is the easiest group to gather, followed by the deep blue shape in the upper right. Sort the narrow lines by width and edge texture before connecting them to the plaster. The smaller central arch has a clean inner opening that makes a useful landmark. Leave the fine cracks and soft shadows for the final pieces, after the color boundaries are in place.
