"Cherries and Creamer" Oil on 6x6 inch board




I painted these cherries the other day.  I had only the cherries and metal measuring cup, and when it was done, it seemed a bit empty, so I put it aside to think about what to do.  I decided to add the creamer, and it looks much better to me.  More complete.   Here are some pics of work in progress....






I decided to add one last cherry....  instead of placing it in the set up, I tried it out in front of the painting to see how it would look.

    You have a mastery of realism of the still life, Debbie!

    The addition of the pot and the final cherry turned this into an excellent composition! well done!
