Vegetable Medley

"Vegetable Medley" 
6x8 oil on canvas
NFS

This painting is my interpretation of Karin Jurick’s reference photo for the DSFDF challenge. I haven’t been working in oils for several months since I got sidetracked with pastels. It was hard getting back to oil painting and after several tries I decided to try again on canvas instead of a gessoed panel. I also was surprised to find that I didn’t forget how to paint and actually enjoyed this challenge!

    No, you certainly didn't forget how to paint -- and thanks especially for showing the exquisite detail view as well.

    Carol, this is fantastic. you certainly didn't forget how to paint in oils! Absolutely great. I love the light, the detail on the plate, the papery texture you've got in the onions, the sheen of the tomatoes--all of it!

    Love this one; you really have mastered a wide range of subjects ... quite impressive. I'm also v. taken with your Perry man portrait from the DSDF challenge.
