It's really interesting to see how you work. And I like seeing your set up, too. You appear to work on one section of the painting at a time, rather than all over. Carrie Waller paints like that. I'm not sure enough of my values to be able to do that--I have to keep going back and making adjustments. Anyway, this is gorgeous!
Thank you Virginia, I never thought about it before, but I guess I do work on one thing at a time. I finished the cherries and did the dish, and table top.. I don't remember exactly what order I went in. I should start with the darkest area, and lightest areas first, that's suppose to make judging the rest of the values easier. but, I don't always remember to do that! :-)
This painting has such a nice feel. Thanks for sharing your process, too. Always interesting to see how other artists work. Good luck with your auction... Best regards, Laurie

DeleteVery pretty. I am trying to figure out your underpainting colors!
ReplyDeleteThank you Egretta, lately I have been toning the board with a thin wash of raw umber and letting it dry, then painting on top of that.
DeleteThis is a great mini painting! I have tried painting nectarines before, but they never look that good.
ReplyDeleteLora, Thanks! I tried to pick out a very interesting looking nectarine :-)
