Just Hangin' Out



I bought a set of these great mid century glasses in a variety of different colors. Each glass has a floral graphic design on it. The silk Iris was one that I had in my stash of still life material. These apples really are as big as they look.
I wanted to work with transparency and color. I feel that I acheived my goals in this painting. When I was done there was just a nice harmony between the colors and shapes.

You work so lightly, Linda, that the apples appear as if they are from glass! Wonderful transparent colours!

I agree Linda and even though subtle, the diagonal horizon is perfect! Lovely . . .

I must have been dreaming, because I thought I had already commented. These apples are great! I would love to see you do more of them. Right everybody? (:

Thank you so much for your kind comments...I think that I made some headway in this painting. I discovered by accident and then by reading that to get a painting to harmonize you include a little bit of each color in the various parts of the painting. What fun!!

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)
