I started this last night, very late... Just sketched in the shapes, and added the flat color... It was getting dark, and hard to see my exact tints and shades. This morning the woman who is buying my table from Craiglist is coming in an hour, and I HAD to finish before I moved everything. (We just purchased a new diningroom set, because we have a growing family and needed a bigger place to eat) This table got moved into the toy room temporarily. Anyway... I think the highlights came out pretty good, and I was surprised at how much reflected light I saw when I really studied it... I just loved this little container I found at the Container Store ! They had lots of different colors, too.!
Really great job on the container, Sandy. I'm looking at the handle and thinking how well you did that, part in light and part in shade. The cherries really look good against the bright green.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the composition with the perspective you took. Your color palette is perfect, too, with red and green. I'm heading to the Container Store - you've inspired me!! :-)
ReplyDeleteJust came from the Container Store... I was going to get a few more of these, too. My apologies, they only had black, white, brown, and green. The other ones were clear plastic, with different designs on them. (not too good for painting, I'd suspect)- so don't go out in the snow trying to get some red or yellow ones !!
ReplyDeleteVery nice composition. Love the red and green color palette.
ReplyDeleteNice, practically translucent cherries on that awesome green.
ReplyDeleteSandy, love your paintings! Great complements here. I also love your portrait work. Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm so excited it led me to yours.
