Grapes in a Paper Bag

” Grapes in a Paper Bag “

6x6 inches 

Oil on canvas panel 

SOLD 

 Grape season has come! 

I started to paint with black and white in order to get the right value before glazing.

Glazing takes time and I need to be a little patient, but once I started to see the rich and complex colors in a paining, it’s definitely worth doing it!

Thank you for viewing.

 Have a beautiful day!

I painted this piece from the photo I took in my kitchen. 

Beauty is everywhere if you just take a closer look once in a while.  Sometimes it's hard to find, because they are so close to where you are.  Maybe it's you in the crowd like the wooden spatula,

or maybe me in red in the ladle:)

Thank you for taking a closer look.

Have a nice day!
