Summer Fruits

Summer Fruits oil/canva   14 x 11 x .5

Summer Fruits began as I yanked a vine of wildly-seeded grapes from a forest walk.  At home, I made a set up with a white cloth draped over a riser.  The resultant painting was accurate.

For some reason, accuracy no longer suffices me to completion.  Three dimensional objects becoming part of a flat well-designed (at least I try) puzzle....now there's the thing!  The final result is infinitely more appealing to me, although it is confusing visually and complicated by the number of things in the composition.  I need to have passages that are unontrolled, yet visually appealing.
