It’s Memorial Day here in the US, a day to remember those who have died while serving our country. Please take a moment to back away from the barbecue and pay respect those who lost their lives. Try 3:00 local time for a Moment of Remembrance.
Lately I’ve been painting more; smaller pieces mostly to build my painting muscles. No, I haven’t been keeping to an hour like I spoke about previously, but not spending forever on a piece continually nit-picking details either.
Just working through straight to the core of what the painting is all about. Been stuck on apples lately.

As always, your colorful shadows appeal to me. Your apples look like a fine snack. Are you going to paint the cores after you eat?

Melissa and Con, Thanks!
Actually, I like the near edge of the plate the best!
And, you’re right Con, I should paint some of these apples afeter a few bites. I guess that means I better get some fresher ones!
