Original New Oil Painting Still Life Lemons on Canvas Panel

 

 

 

Titled: “Lemons in Red”

 

The use of analogous color in your paintings, like in the case of this still life, is perfect for those beginning or more experienced in painting, you can create the feeling of a  variety of color with just a few.  When creating your paintings, you will have a better understanding of color and it’s relationship with each other.

Using a limited palette is not only great to do practice in oils or any medium but will train your eye as well. The still life, the lemons even tho part of the artwork are not the main subject but the background, used a combination of impressionism and abstract to make a relationship between the old and the modern.

Oil Painting Portrait and video

 

Portrait of a young women in Oils

With this portrait, the disadvantage was time. The good thing in my opinion is that despite of the risks taken the results are favorable, in the process of making the painting, the eyes view was changed several times from eyes looking down,closed to open. (glad wasn’t ruined)
