Got to love the local farmers markets. You never know what you can find. Daily dose of vegetables leads to daily painting. 🙂 I have been waiting to paint these summer tomatoes since yesterday morning! I love the subtle under tones of cadmium and thought it would be a fun contrast against my favorite blue bowls.
So after a few sketches and wipe offs, I settled into this birds-eye composition. I focused on simplifying the shapes and layers to build up the depth. While playing with the balance of the complimentary color scheme. Turned out nicely.
