Original Oil Painting Hidden Crock


Hidden Crock

 12" x 12"
Painted on gessobord.

My main goal in this one was to put the paint down with out messing with it too much. So much easier said than done. This is the fifth or sixth still life I painted working with a wet on wet painting technique. I still find myself blending with a soft brush or palette knife along the edges of different color values. I guess this is my preferred style. Old habits that work well for me are hard to break but I do see my edges are improving.

Original Oil Painting Touch Fruitball


Touch Fruitball

10" x 10"

Sold

I finished my fruit painting today. When I finish a painting I am looking at color values, edges, shadows and blending. I call it Touch Fruitball because it reminds me of touch football. The football in this case is the orange and the pear and banana want it.
