#296 Who's the Fairest


Click to buy! (8x8 inch oil)

Challenged myself with a big shiny bowl and a big somewhat translucent tomato!  So hard to get an accurate photo of this one.

#294 The Don


Click to buy! (10x8 inch oil)

Zach named this one and made the suggestion that I paint our olive oil.  I appreciate how he is always trying to encourage me on this art journey.  The tomato was little intimidating to me, but I like how it turned out!

Here are a couple of other shots.

#266 JalapeƱos and a Tomato


Not for Sale (6x6 inch oil)

This painting was my second attempt at painting jalapeƱos.  My first painting was a different composition and I overworked it.  I'm much happier with this one.  :)

Here are a couple of process shots...

Click to buy! (5x7 inch oil)

I enjoyed painting the saturated reds and all of the reflected light.

#215 Avocado and Tomatoes

SOLD (6x6 inches)

After several days of not painting it was so nice to paint something and like how it turned out.  When I feel stuck or frustrated with what I've been painting, I'll often try painting a fruit or vegetable.  Not because they are easy for me, but they are easier!  I tried painting more thinly by adding some mineral spirits to my paint, but just a little.  Then I tried going back in some places with thicker paint mixed with medium for the details.  I kept the edges softer than in the past.
