In contrast to the last post, this apple seems lost and sad, as if a part of him is missing... Okay, I admit that maybe I'm carrying this anthropomorphism a little too far.
I enjoy the palette in this painting. The warm rusts enhance the cool yellow-greens nicely, and give some emphasis to the sliced areas that are lighter in value. It's also on Arches 300 lb. cold-pressed paper.

Well... that's life ;)
ReplyDeleteAwesome as allways.
Kind regards
Hi, Deborah. I am so glad you found my blog. I have so enjoyed seeing your art through your newsletter. Haven't been up on Wet Canvas in such a long time - every once in a while I pop up to see what people are doing. Many of the artists I liked from WC are up on blogs and Facebook.
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely painting - the color absolutely sizzles. Beautiful texture on the skin of the apple too!
The rusts really make the greens pop on this piece. I have found my gouache paints and my arches, now you have really tempted me to try my hand at these atc size paintings!

Thanks, Helder. :D
ReplyDeleteClaire, thank you. I don't get too much time at WC any more, though now and again I'm there, mostly posting these little gouache paintings.
Go for it, Margo! I love the little ones.
