Thanks to all of your for your well-wishes. I'm feeling much better! Still fatigued -- but less fuzzy-headed.
I sketched this bowl of fruit from a photo reference and used a blend of techniques -- the fruit -- Charles Reid's wet-in-wet, and the bowl -- Reid's wet-in-wet, followed by three washes to darken the bowl. Not as loose as Reid -- not as tight as my normal! LOL
good job on this! I notice you've really got the depth of the fruit in the bowl, what I mean is that you can see there is fruit behind the other fruit. congrats, your hard work is paying off!
ReplyDeleteI applaud you for still painting when you don't feel good! Your artistic progress is certainly in high gear!!
ReplyDeleteI ditto Teri! You are in the midst of an accelerated growth--it's so inspriring to see your work every day!!
ReplyDeleteWhich Reid book are you going through?
Very lovely Lin. Love the colors and the variety of tones.
ReplyDeleteVery sensitively observed and painted, Lin. I do hope you'll be 100% very soon, cara!
ReplyDeleteIt looks DELICIOUS, girl...
ReplyDeleteI like the soft rich colors in this painting. It seems like the colors I see associated with Tuscany.
ReplyDeleteLin---I love your fruit bowl....and your bottle of medicine. And your work in general. It looks as though you're having fun with journaling!--Carol
ReplyDeleteThis one is such a good mix of detail and loose -- the detail in the kiwi is superb and the bowl and some of the fruit lend that impressionistic look. Love the colors.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Glad you are feeling better. Love this Lin. The search for looseness is very admirable, but don't lose your individual style on the way. :o)
