"Garlic and Limes in the Orange Dish" (14"X18", Oil on Canvas, $500)
Here's the burnt orange enamel dish again, and some limes. I told you I liked limes. I also like garlic, but mostly just use it to cook with. I can imagine a chicken dish that would be great with both limes and garlic. It sounds a little Asian, I guess.
This painting was based on massing shadows within a sharp light source. You can see the ellipse of the dish within the ellipse of light that frames the scene. I hope someone in the world has a rustic-style kitchen with lighting that would complement this light/shadow study. I like the bold mood in this painting and I'd like to do more like it.
