Red Reflected Oil on Linen 8 x 10 $300
This one was challenging but a lot of fun. I wanted to create some drama with the lighting, emphasizing the red of the pomegranate, as well as practice painting reflections. I had to really stick to 'paint what you see' because the reflections were not what I expected, in terms of value and colour intensity in some areas. All in all I'm pretty pleased with results.
Un travail magnifique ma chère Claire!... Wouahou!
ReplyDeleteles reflets sont superbes et jouer avec les nuances de rouges n'ont pas du être une simple affaire! Bravo aussi pour le souci du détail.
Une oeuvre spécialement belle et réussie.
gros bisous

ReplyDeleteThank you Martine, Antonio, Steven and Hilda. I'm grateful for your positive comments. I was afraid that this one was a bit too dark so I appreciate your thoughts. I did really have fun with the reflections.
ReplyDeleteVery well done. I think red is one of the more difficult hues to work with, but you seem to have mastered it here.
