Simply Apples

Simply Apples

About This Painting:What is the smallest amount of information that still says "apple"? Here I am  challenged  to paint an apple in as few areas of color as possible, and still have it read as a 3-dimensional apple. I added impasto brush work to give this small interest more interest.

Conga Cherries

Conga Cherries

About This Painting: My husband love these Michigan sweet cherries so when I was at the store today I bought some peaches to paint in still life and he picked up a bag of sweet cherries. I was playing with them making a little Conga line when I decided they were to good to pass up. So I rescued a few from my husbands snack and I painted them.

Birds and Berries

Delilah Smith

I wanted to paint a row of cherries because I had bought a whole bag of them and I thought if I lined them up making the little stems go every which way it would make an interesting painting, I had them all in a row with the lighting just so...them my mind took of and I thought what if I added a few blue berries. I did a quick sketch imaging the blue berries because I had none. Sometimes it's great to be an artist the world is at the tip of your brush. Then I went crazy and put those chubby little bird on a branch just checking everything out.

Orange and Bee

Today I went to a gallery that featured abstract art. I like abstract paintings but I very rarely paint in that language. I came home and painted this still life because I am still a figurative artist even though I get inspired by abstract art and love to view it.

Strawberry Painting

I think when I first started to paint reds were the most difficult for me to work with. It I am working on a long term painting project where I have the luxury of letting it dry for days between painting time I can use the old masters technique of glazing to get it just right. My small daily paintings are done "alla prima" so I work on Value, Intensity and Temperate right from the start.

When I look at the strawberries I see red so I put down a light wash of red to get some of the general color in. Intensity goes from light to dark in most colors you can lighten them by adding white but if you do this red you get pink. Pink strawberries are not what I want. After I have the general color I put in the darkest dark and last the lighter color, yellows and oranges work to lighten the value.

Once I have the general colors down I move on the intensity of the color grays and browns are at the low end while orange is at the high end. The most vivid red of the strawberries are the area that is closet to me. That would be the bulge of the berry.

I now look at temperature. Red is a warm color so the shadows will be cooler with some reflected general color.

I am always working on my red trying to get them just a little better. Well at least the berries are not pink.
