Bananas on Green Plate



Sometimes deciding what to paint is a real dilemma. I am trying to learn more about color and warm and cool relationships. Discipling myself to think more thoughfully about the color that I am laying in does not come naturally. However, I think that I made a little progress in this painting.

Linda I think you did what you set out to do. Should I say, turning a corner? It feels great to have conquered something like nailing the color temperatures....and you did it!
Nice job!

Wonderful job, Linda! The orange reflection on the skin is so gorgeous, as is your brushwork. I am intimidated when it comes to painting bananas but you always make it look so easy and enjoyable. Love the way you allowed the thickness of the paint to create some of the ridges. Just awesome!

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)
