CHERRIES
Those Little cherries were painted yesterday, just after our arrival here, on the Lake;
I had to buy them , at Safeway, in town, our Internet connection was not activated, and I had not the reference picture;I painted them in the afternoon, and had trouble with the shadows, after a while, of course,they changed, because it was a very sunny day...at the beginning, the shadows were weaker than the cherries, but at the end, completely the opposite;it's a lesson, nextime I won't paint a still life outdoors.
I am not sure the photo is as good as usual, but I ‘d like to participe to the Rookie Painter challenge!

I love the composition you did on these 3 cherries. And those shadows are just wonderful - even the stem shadow! Love it!
ReplyDeleteJe trouve que vous avez patiente ma chère! En ce qui me concerne l'ombre n'aurait pas eu le temps de changer... je les aurais toutes mangées ces cerises! Elles demeurent cependant très craquantes sur votre peinture.
ReplyDeleteLove this, Sylviane. The shadows tie the cherries together very nicely!
ReplyDeleteLove the light bouncing off the cherries and the way you handled the stems and the rich shadows!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Sylviane! So happy to see you are enjoying your trip to Canada~ Susan :)
ReplyDeleteDespite the changing light, they came out great.
