11x14" acrylic. This is a little one I did from a phone pic I took at Christmas. C&C welcome.
Hey Elliot, How are you? This is nice, really nice. I like the style so much, and extremely well executed. I like the colour of the lime slice on the left with the light translucent look. All very believable with out feeling tight. I really like it. Good job.
I just zoomed in, love that little hit of bright yellow as the light passes through the slice of lemon. I also really like the brush work. Did Dave inspire you? I find this a really strong peice. Bravo
Thanks so much Julie. I wasn't conscious of inspiration from Dave, but I've certainly noticed the luminous quality of some his paintings and would be thrilled to think I've come close to that in any way at all.
Gorgeous painting Elliot!!!! I agree with Julie, its strong with good painting and good composition. By the way all my refrence pics, painting pics ARE from my phone camera!!! heh
Lovely job on this one Elliot...I see you are starting to leave your brushstrokes alone!!! ...its a good thing and a sign of your growth as a painter. Brian
