Lovely handling of colour here. You have managed to make them look so juicy. I like your choice of background too, some warmth from the fruit for harmony but with enough complimentary colour to support the subject. Very clever!!
Vic, I have not been as active on the internet lately and have missed your wonderful work...this painting is beautiful. The composition....simple and elegant and that color!....striking!!!
I started painting around 1990 and loved it straight away.
I started with watercolour,and then after about 15 years I moved to Oils and acrylics. I still paint the odd watercolour to keep my hand in so to speak. I love impressionism. The only time I use detail is when I paint portraits. Otherwise it is my interpretation of the subject.
I am retired but still find it hard to find time to paint. I reckon I can manage to do a painting about three times a week.
Originally I was a Motor Mechanic. Then, for the eighteen years leading up to my retirement, I worked
for Barclays bank.
