I love doing the still life paintings in pairs. This was the second in the series.

Still Life with Fruit

It has been so long since I have done a still life. I am so used to doing the bright children on the beach and I had some paint left over so I decided to do two small still life paintings. I really enjoyed it. I especially love the yellow craduating to a deep crimson red as it gets darker. There is nothing prettier to me.
