The Very Last Zinnia #62

I thought I would torture myself some more today and paint flowers again.  Please, don't ask me why I do this.  I brought in a silver Jefferson Cup and all-in-all, I'm am happy with the reflection.  It actually looks like metal - yay!

Here's the real Zinnia.  It's the very last one from my garden.

I redid the silver cup from yesterday - much better!

Three Clementines #63

I had exactly an hour left, so I painted the clementines from start to finish.  I laid in the values and focused on creating a strong light source, thinking that that would make up for any misshapen fruit I may paint.  They say establishing your values is KEY to a successful painting and I think they're on to something.  I like this painting - it's super loose for me.

Off to the last football game - GO CATS!
