The fourth and maybe last of the fruit series. Maybe I’ll try spices next.

An experiment.

Trying to broaden my horizons. This one is large, 3′ x 4′. The colors are enhanced, I wanted something vivid, not necessarily accurate. I’m not sure it worked as well as I’d hoped. But we learn more from mistakes than successes.

Out of order on this site, actually my second fruit. It’s hard to mix the right green color, I missed but I think it’s still a natural apple color.

Here’s the same painting with some really cool light coming from the window.

Thought I’d try something new, didn’t plan anything and just started painting ice cream cones. Added stuff as I went. Almost torched this one, but it turned out ok. It’s large, 3′ x 4′.

Number 3 in the fruit series, and number 7 in veggies and fruit. Lots of redo’s on this one until I could stand it.

I’ve been wanting to paint an owl, I think they are pretty cool and a little creepy. I liked this shot, though I don’t really understand what is going on in the background. So what?

In my never ending search for things to paint I came across this colorful pair. It’s 24″ x 30″, I’m going to keep doing larger pieces as I gain more confidence.

Decided I want to do bigger paintings. I thought it was time to do flowers again. This one is 30″ x 40″, so it’s the largest piece I’ve done yet. Bigger isn’t any harder than smaller, just more expensive.

I decided to continue with my veggie series, but I couldn’t come up with another good veggie color, so I changed to fruits. This one is one of those weird apples where you just eat the seeds. Watch for more fruits to come.
