'Cherries II' - 20" x 20" - oil on canvas(available through Dean Day Gallery in Houston, TX)
The second in a series of paintings submitted for review to a new venue. I'm really liking working with cherries and wish I had a chance to work with them year round. Actually, I can work with them more months out of the year than not, but I have to be ready to pay TOP dollar for them when out of season. Realistically, it makes sense if the work sells, but there's still that slight cussing under one's breath when at the cash register......
That was a lot of blue to paint, by the way. Not that I mind blue. I love it, really. However, the next in the series, 'Cherries III' has an unsurprising lack of blue in it. Thankfully.

I so love this....
Well this is a knockout.. WOW!
very nice detail in the glass jug and the reflection is perfectly done.
J thinks contemporary realist painters really like painting the whole reflection/refraction stuff to show off. :P
