Carrots on the Cutting Board


I really fell in love with painting vegetables on cutting boards. Painting wood is fascinating!
The painting is made on stretched canvas, 8x10', acrylic.

Rolling Out

Originally, I planned to place two tomatoes on the vine in the bowl, and take a picture. However, while I was placing them, the heaviest tomato weighed the bowl down and tried to escape :) And suddenly it was perfect for picture taking! I added a few water drops.... just because I love adding water drops so much! :)

The painting was made on a 5x7x1/8 inch Ampersand gessoed hard board using professional grade acrylic paint.

Sliced Avocado

 
Today I am having an avocado slice painting! Avocados are certainly a joy to paint, and sometimes it is very hard to stop :) Well, I can easily get carried away, and paint a lot of pretty much anything, but avocados are on top of the list!

I love this piece because it is so bright, and it makes me happy just looking at it! I added a tiny water drop on the table. I thought it would be a tiny cute addition to the piece!

Half a Dozen of Mushrooms

 
 
I decided to paint another mushroom painting on a longer deep profile canvas. I got some mushrooms from the local grocery store, and played with mushroom compositions. I've learned that they look cute any way you place them. Each of them has its own character! I just love those tiny cuties! They cheer me up every time I look at them! This one is on 4x12x1.5' deep profile gallery wrapped canvas. Acrylic.

Chocolate Dipped Strawberry


I've always wanted to paint a chocolate dipped strawberry, but never had a photo that inspired me. Recently, we had a new tiny store opened in our outlet mall, and their chocolate covered strawberries look so yummy! I bought some and took pictures. I love chocolate glaze with a hint of Alizarin in it!
At frist I made the background dark grey with lighter grey mottling on the sides, but then I changed it and made the sides black. I think it really pops the chocolate strawberry up!

The painting is made on 6x6x1.5', acrylic on gallery wrapped (deep profile) canvas.

Halved Strawberry

 
My 13-year-old daughter loves fruit salad in the morning. I mix all sorts of fruit that I can find in my refrigerator. One morning I was cutting fruit, and I noticed that strawberries have a very cute heart-like shape inside. I carefully cut one with the stem and the still life composition was ready to paint!
 
Hope you enjoy this one!
