Lemons And Cherries II
Lemons And Cherries I
I always like to do two of a subject. Never the same painting but companions that go together.
I've painted maybe one lemon before, not many. I loved the little "noses" they had. They were so much fun to paint, I think there might be a lot more lemons in the near future.
The above two "Pear And Purple Grapes I And II" I have never seen grapes as purple as these were...It is interesting to notice how bright the colors look in the painting, and how washed out they look in the set-up next to it. Maybe it's just in my head but I swear it is more vibrant in real life than it looks in the photo. The main reason I work from real life!
"Apple And Plums"
This was an older painting that I was going to sand down because I thought the composition was to flat across. I decided to give myself one hour to fix it and see what happens. I repainted the background and added the shadows of the stems, which I thought gave it some life. I am really happy I didn't take the sandpaper to it!
All are 6 x 8 Oil on Panel
