Cantelope and Plums

Today we continued in class on the "fruit still life" theme. The students are really enjoying this beautiful fresh fruit. When I got home today I was so hungry and it looked so good, I had to eat the melon!
It's been a good exercise in really learning to "see" what we are looking at. It helps to know what you are looking "for". We were looking for VALUE, SHAPE, LIGHT, & SHADOW. If you look you will find it......
I brought my two paintings home to photograph and post. One of them got mushed in the car ride, ugh!
After my trip next week (post coming soon about that), I will finish the two pieces in class while helping the students complete their works. I will post more photos at that time.
