High Key Apple


I painted this Granny Smith apple on a 6 x 6 gessoboard, using direct strokes of high key colors. I think my challenge is going to be experimenting with my paints and surfaces.

The Orange Wedge


This little 4 x 5 was a joy to paint, as I begin to find my sea legs again, and know my limitations required for a daily painting. Painting alla prima is my favorite, and I experimented with different brushes today, mainly filberts. I usually use long flats to help keep my paintings loose.
