The third in my "apples and oranges" series of still life featuring fruit in a bowl on my kitchen table. This one is in oil pastel on gessoed canvas panel where I experimented by using black gesso for the background with the subject area in regular white gesso. I am pleased with the result and will be using this technique again.
This image features two red apples, one in a white bowl in back of the focal apple and an orange. There is a common saying here in the US, "like comparing apples to oranges," which I decided would make a perfect theme for a series of still life artwork.
I often joke that I learned to draw and paint because it is easier and quicker for me than getting a good photograph. I do still make the attempt to use my camera more effectively from time to time, but I have more natural aptitude to using a pencil or paint. Often what few photographs I am satisfied with become reference for my artwork. I work with charcoal, soft pastels, oil pastels, watercolor, acrylic, and am learning oil painting. I tend towards more realistic, although I have dabbled in impressionism when the fancy strikes. I live at the dead end of a dirt road in rural Florida with my husband and a yardful of critters, while the local deer and wild turkeys eat my annual efforts at gardening.
