Red Grapefruit

New subject for me, red grapefruit. They taste far nicer than normal grapefruits. I painted it whole and then cut it in half and painted the half. Then I squeezed it and drank it!

3 Plums

My latest finished painting is 3 plums. It's been a while since I did a grey background. It gives more of a contemporary look rather than the traditional dark background of the old Dutch still lifes.

Glass Cup with Teaspoon

Painting transparent things is totally different from painting solid fruit, lots of subtle reflections.
