"Tea Time"

I started and finished this study today. This "not so simple" still life was a great lesson. To create the focal paint, just a few grapes were rendered to three values. The rest were kept at  two values. To paint the teapot it was necessary to see the color relationships of the grapes, the light and the tablecloth and still keep the values. Great lesson.
