Lemon in acrylics

 I painted another still life for a change as I needed a bit of a break from detail. I love the contrast of the bright yellow lemon against the black background. 

Lemon measures 7 x 5 inches and is painted on Colourfix Smooth paper.

The painting is available for purchase through Etsy.  To view the listing, please click here.

Lemon in oils

I love painting fruit as I love the play of light against dark.   I experimented a bit with the table top colour and in the process found  the perfect colour combination which I think works really well. I really enjoyed painting this one so I am planning on using the remaining  three 5 x 5 inch panels to paint some more fruit paintings.

Lemon measures 5 x 5 inches and is painted on Ampersand Gessobord.
