White Pumpkins and Roadside Purple oil 9 x 12 |
This is the second "quickie" painting done to regain a sense of balance within the bounds of painting exactly what is in front of me through direct observation. The light source was a studio lamp. The canvas was pre-toned in a warmish neutral. White pumpkins have always been thrilling to me. Added to that is a bunch of roadside wildflowers that carry a vibrant purple that can be seen from afar. They always pop up this time of year much to my delight.
