This painting is a companion piece to one that I did a month ago which featured blueberries, strawberries and kiwi slices.
This is the original painting. I had so much trouble getting two images in this post in the place I wanted it to be. It was almost more time consuming than completing the paintings. I love Blogger, but every time I think I know what I am doing, they seem to change something!
I guess what they say about "old dogs" is true!

What a nice combo of fruit paintings. This new one is like a Fourth of July treat! Reminds me of the lovely desserts Mom always made on that day. Simply delicious!
ReplyDeleteYum..just add cream and a touch of sugar! The strawberry just pops and the shine is amazing. It really looks like I can pick it up off the page. Great color combination as well.
ReplyDeleteMakes me hungry, Carol. To eat some fresh fruit as well as to become a better artist.
ReplyDeleteThese are delicious looking! Plump, lush and ripe. Gorgeous range of colours.
ReplyDeleteWonderful work!
ReplyDeleteBest regards!
Carol, the berries and bananas look gorgous - plump and colorful!! Beautifully done!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the most delicious painting I have ever seen! BEAUTIFUL!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! Looks yummy :)
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought these were watercolors! So fresh and having a transparent look about them...very nice...hmmm I think I will dig the blueberries out of the freezer for a taste!
ReplyDeleteAs Kay, I thought initially these were watercolors Carol. Lovely piece! I think your fruits are my favorites.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol!.... Very nice compositions... both!The texture is splendidly handled... and not overdone! Leaves much for the viewer to "imagine"... a real gem!
ReplyDeleteGood Painting!

Such a beautiful combination of colors and so well done. I just love the feeling of your work. I've been gazing at the reflected light on the original strawberry for a while now and love it!
ReplyDeleteGood enough to eat, that's for sure! The translucence and shine of the berries is wonderful, and I especially love the bright accent of the banana slices (and those strong brushstrokes) in the top one.
ReplyDeleteAs always Carol, I love your work. And I thank you so much for the incredibly nice comment you left on my blog - coming from you it made my day!
