16 Copper Pot and Apples

Diane Mannion, Copper Pot and Apples, 8x10" o/c

      16th for the 30/30 Challenge.  Started as a class demo in Punta Gorda this morning, finished later.  I like some bits of this... relished painting the apples, like the purple flowers, but it's not one of my favorites.  If I had time, I'd add more things in the background, which I can always do later.

    Beautiful. I love to see artists that can make metal like copper or gold or silver look like they're supposed to.

    Thanks, Kathleen. Great to see you in class. Yes, it's almost impossible to get a brushstroke in edgewise in that class. I told everyone at the beginning (you missed it) that I was doing a demo of starting a painting.) I'd rather folks worked on their own stuff than watch me paint, except for short demos.
