5 x 5, Oils, Decaying Apple Half

I painted the apple half in two sittings over two days. My original goal was to state the texture of the cut apple. I didn t anticipate how fast it would change and the rate of change increased dramatically on the second day.

It was challenging to restate the characteristics of the changing apple and more challenging to keep up with the pace of deterioration. I had to paint as fast as it rotted.
Throughout the paint process, the structure and color of the stem/core remained vital. At the start, the apple had seeds but someone, whom we will leave nameless, knocked the apple off the table removing the seeds.

Decaying Apple Half is painted on linen that s mounted on ready to hang 1/4 inch board. Ready to hang board has a nail groove in the back allowing you to hang the art immediately without using a frame.

5 x 5 Walnut Study

Hi-
Since my last posting, I ve created several smaller studies and I m working on several still life projects. As I develop the more complex, larger work, I ll continue to post smaller studies. In most cases the studies will relate back to larger stuff but not all.
I ll create the studies based on need and interest. The walnut study is a great example of this. in this case, I focused on color and texture. The shell color is a new brown mix created and wanted to try and I felt the need to articulate the texture and grooves of the shell surface.
I m sending two images today, lemon and walnut study. The walnut study is created on 1/4 inch board with a linen surface. It has a groove on the back and is ready to hang.
In most cases the smaller studies will go for approx. $55.00, the price might vary based on degree of difficulty, content and quality of painting.

best-D
