I was working on another commission today, these lemons really brightened up my mood, it's so dreary outside!
Oil on deep stretched canvas, 6x6 inches

I ordered an easel a few weeks ago and when it arrived I was hesitant to assemble it. Luckily I live with an engineer, who offered to do it for me. During the process this is what I heard from the other room:
This was the tiniest avocado I have ever seen, it was so cute I just had to paint it. And I love the background color, teal blue and that particular shade of green is one of my favorite color combinations.
I wanted to give up on this painting so many times. But I fought through it, and five hours later I had this.
And tomorrow I get to participate in my first "First Friday Artwalk", here in Carpinteria. I'm very excited, and hoping more of my paintings dry by then so I can show them!
I'm really happy with how this one turned out, I usually get frustrated when painting fabrics, but this one wasn't so bad. I'm not as happy with how the photo turned out, the bottom part of the painting isn't quite that dark.
Oil on stretched canvas, 12x12 inches, sides painted.
SOLD
