"This Way Please" 6x6

"This Way Please"

6x6 oil on panel

This is another painting with the batch of cherries I picked up at the market. I like putting different colors under the still life items I set up. It just adds some extra dimension and color to the overall design. The cherry in front wouldn't stand up correctly and "point" the same way as the others, so I came up with the title this way!

"Fruit Plate" 6x6

"Fruit Plate"

6x6 oil on panel

Small still life study of apples and cherries. I tried to keep loose and not try to do my edges of the plate and fruit so perfectly. It is hard to do! It seems like it would be easier to keep it loose and not try to draw everything just as it is, but as many of my artist friends know, it isn't. I am getting a little better the more that I do at just letting go though. Lots of shadow on this one because of the angle of my light.
