Limes, Buffalo China

" Little Limes in Buffalo China Bowl "
Oil
6"x6"
Sold
Once again, here is my favorite fabric. I found some great vintage Buffalo China bowls on eBay and will be using them in future paintings.
Now that the holidays are over I can focus on painting again. I am not one who can easily have house guests and get my work done in the studio. I want to sit and visit, play games, cook...It's more about focusing on one thing at a time and with my son home and friends around, that's how I like to spend my time. The paintings will get done eventually.

I can't get enough of these paintings. Beautiful.

Thanks, Mary. I'm glad yo like this one, too. I'm thinking I prefer the burnt sienna or yellow oxide for toning the gesso board, like this one is. Yesterday's was done on black gesso. Depends on the key of the painting. I have used bright colors like red...so many choices.

Whoops, this is the painting with the black gesso ground.

This is gorgeous. I love the stripes and rhe reflection on the bowl. The limes just glow.

Thanks, Nancy. As you may have guessed I have used this fabric over and over and never tire of it, always a challenge to paint. Thanks for visiting my blog!
