Radishes

[Donna T]

I sketched in the placement of the leaves as soon as I set these up because they wilted so quickly. Mixing the reds I needed was kind of a fun challenge. I used a photo to do the leaves when everything else was done but I tried not to get too detailed with them. oil on paper, 7x9in.

Very well done, the radishes look so 3d, it's like I can pick them right out of the painting

Donna, the radishes are EXCELLENT
I like the softness you have in this painting. The thin roots that come out on the other end of each radish are perfect. I like how things recede to distance. Green and red tones together are so compatible. Everything is so well done. Just love this piece!

Oh, this is very special! Love everything about it.

I also like how they are set up on the table.

Thank you Liz - I did pick them up, wash them off and eat them when I finished!

Grapes, thank you so much! I am trying not to mess with the board/dark strip at the bottom. I had a nice level line at one point but it got lost so I'll just say it's a rustic cutting board. At one point I got a surprise violet when I was mixing colors. I liked it so I put a few touches of it in the background and along the bottom. I hate to waste paint, haha.

Thank you Sanlynn!
