Pomegranite In Silver Dappled Bowl

February 4, 2010

I have wanted to paint a Pomegranite with the peeling removed revealing the transparent fruit seeds and I feel that I finally got a painting I was pleased with. I experimented with deep forshortening and view from above. The biggest challenge were the indentatins on the silver bowl until I treated them as strands of pearls. This oil painting is 8 inches by 8 inches on canvas panel.

Thanks Marie...it was incredibly difficult for me to get it right and may be a little tight because of that.

I am enjoying landscape painting so much. It is partly because the Finetec waterolors that I use. They are so incredibly beautiful....ssooooo beautiful.....each stroke is a stroke of LOVE....... www.lindahuntfineart.com

VANITY SOLD

I LOVE 'girl' things like lipstick, perfume, nail polish bottles, and pretty little compact cases. In this painting I was working for limited strokes. I would lay down the paint and leave it without manipulating it in any way. 6X6 inches oil Raymar canvas panel (Archival)

LITTLE ORANGE TEAPOT SOLD

Red Orange is another of my favorite colors. When I saw this great tea pot in one of the stores in town I wanted it right away. But, I thought and thought about it and when I went back to the store it was still there and I decided that it was mine! I am not a tea drinker but I have always loved the shapes and sizes and variety of design of teapots. In this painting I backlit the teapot with natural and studio lighting. I was experimenting with the changing values and shadow. 8X8 inches oil Raymar Canvas Panel (Archival)
