Out of the Shadows

Painting No. 58|8″ x 8″|Oil on Canvas Panel
Building off of what I learned with No. 57 I cropped this one in tighter, made the background a little more dramatic and then focused in on the apple a little bit more. I like the way it turned out and the composition is tighter as well. By focusing I was able to keep my colors cleaner on the apple and I think that’s what helps it. It did not go on too thick so the yellow near the stem and the light yellow/red on the highlight stayed purer on this one.
