Another acrylic with an under-painting.  You can see the texture in the background and glass jar.

I don't know why I love to paint apples and pears.  I just do. 

Reflected Pears

 

Acrylic, 14 x 11

 

Another acrylic on paper.  Simple design but dramatic.  I especially like the placement of the pears.

Three Apples

Three Apples, Acrylic, 12 x 9"

I'm back to painting acrylics on watercolor paper and of course fruits!  It's hard to see in this picture but there's a lot of texture and color coming through.  Love these colors!

I love the texture on this one!

Four Pears

Four Pears, acrylic, 8 x 10"

I started painting with acrylics again! This started with an underpainting and then I added the image on top. It's much better in real life - you get to see all the colors coming thru. I matted and placed in my bin at the MAA Wheaton Gallery. So I started a few more and will show those next time.

Lilies

Lilies, Acrylic, 20 x 16"

These are asiatic lilies. They have a wonderful smell and last farely long. A new day brings an open bud. But watch out for those stamens. It will stain everything including your fingers and fabric. I usually pull them off before that happens. I like the light and shadow in this painting.
