Pears and Cranberries

Pears and Cranberries

6"x6"

Acrylic on panel

The bumps on the pear on the left are what drew me to it when I saw it in the grocery store and were  fun to paint...challenging but fun..I've painted pears before, but have never studied the form like I did with this one...

I think its the bumps  on the one on the left that give it personality...

Tomatoes

New tomato painting....I love the shapes of the stems....This was good practice for me...I struggled with some aspects of the piece, like the cast shadows behind the stems, but I'm pretty happy with the way it came out...

Copper Pot

Copper Pot

6"x6"

Acrylic on panel

First time I've ever painted a copper pot...challenging to say the least, but I learned a lot! I like things that sparkle...I painted this because I wanted to capture some of the sparkle and glow of the pot...I also like the way the shadow of the handle looked against the background...

Pears

New Pear study....I haven't painted pears in awhile, but I loved the colors and shapes...like the way the two look together...as if one is talking to the other...nuzzling the other's nose...

Cherries in a Teacup
6"x6"

Acrylic on panel

This teacup was laying around the house and I thought it would be fun to paint... Makes me think of Alice in Wonderland...I like the idea of all of the cherries piled up in the teacup with one  standing proudly beside it who decided to jump ship...
