A Dash of Red...

Inspired by red fruit and flowers, I have made a few still life paintings, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I did most of the painting in a direct way, in one sitting (per painting, that is!). For the strawberries I painted an intuitive, colourful undercoat in acrylic, and then did the oil paintings on top of that, letting some of the undercoat dictate the background as well as the composition.

Textures in gold and coppery colours, soft roses and bright white light contrast to create interest in these paintings done in collage & mixed media on stretched canvas. 225 x 305 mm each. Available from IMBIZO art Gallery, Lifestyle Centre, Ballito. (Click on image to enlarge.) Gold coloured paint, which isn't always visible as such on digital images, gives a lustre to the paintings in certain areas.
