Lemons & FlowerThis painting was done for Lela Stankovic's Paint and Draw Together Blogspot. It was done with a palette knife using acrylic paint on a gallery wrapped 12" x 12" canvas. The bowl in her photograph was translucent, and I must admit defeat with painting that translucency and painted it a more opaque bowl. For the sake of art, some things have to be altered for the viewer to see a more understandable piece....and, this was one of those times. I also cropped and flipped her photograph... Please visit Lela's PADT site to see the original photograph and the many renditions being submitted by other artists.

A symphony of bright notes, Pat - absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteReally like the way you handled the composition - the bowl doesn't compete with the lemons and flower and your palette knife texture is rich!
