Fruit Bowl Close Up


Fruit Bowl Close Up
12 x 12"
Oil
$288
DPW $230

     The fruit in this bowl looks very nice when seen as a whole bowl and all the fruit, but I found it more interesting close up. It looked even better the closer I got. Then when I allowed the edge of the bowl to leave the canvas, I really liked it. 
     My friend says to always have part of your shapes go outside the picture frame. I believe she is right, but I must be careful not to cut things in half, and definitely do not go just to the edge and "tickle" the edge of the canvas. Then I must be sure that what I have left is not stuck right in the middle.          
     Composition can be such a juggling act.

  1. Beautiful! Your work is lovely! I really admire your definitive brush strokes and wish I could free myself enough to stop all the fussing over details I tend to do! And, you are right about cropping making for much more interesting compositions! You do this very well!
