I have been on an apple kick lately, I find it helps my painting to use the same subject several times...always learning something from apple to apple.

I have been enjoying painting apples, completely different from painting animals...or maybe I just think it's different.

Hmmm, how to make a subject that is mostly red have interest...difficult for me but liked the challenge.

I have learned over the years that creating a painting you are happy with means you have to examine your photo or subject...keep referring to it over and over as you paint, maybe put down your brush leave for a moment and come back and look again, especially the small details that you at first won't even see but will make your painting come alive when you add them.

There is so much more to painting an apple than I had first thought. The very slight colour changes on the skin, the different reflections, lights and darks...quite a wonderful subject to paint.
