"Splashing Color" 5x7 Oil on Board


I got out my favorite, small, flat, oil brush this gorgeous morning and painted this pear. I decided to make it in a watercolor style since that is what I originally trained in. I liked the results.
When I started oils, I liked to lay them on thick - not any more. This is using a minimal amount of oil paint on board.
The pear was placed on a gingham dishtowel under a halogen light. I painted it in less than 30 minutes. I was happy with the results.
