Green Bananas and Eggplant

Push push pushing....this painting is a 20"x16" oil painting on stretched cotton canvas. I am happy with the painting the way it is but am reserving the right to work more on it if it requires additional information. There are many things that I am still learning from the Lori Putnam book and DVD. A wealth of knowledge is contained there in.
With this painting I was taken with the golden feeling in the painting. I stained my canvas with a darker golden color which you can see in the parts left unpainted. This is truly breaking new ground for me and I am having a lot of enjoyment. The palette was a little different because the bananas were so green. The juxtaposition with the deep purple eggplant was one that I liked very much.

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)
