Grapes Revisited.

Comments

Looks really good Denise , so much different to the paintings you were doing a few months ago. You have developed as a painter so much over the short time you have been with us on POL. I for one look forwards to seeing your future contribution to the gallery.👍👏

Thanks Paul, that’s very kind of you to say. Thanks Diane and I used acrylics.

Well done Denise, lovely grapes and glass, was it fuller when you started? 🤣

That made me laugh Katy, can you tell by the brush strokes. Thanks Hilary, I’m glad I tried this again.

I tried to paint grapes at the beginning of the October Challenge and they turned out looking like brussel sprouts. I sat down at 8pm, worked in dim light and even though I didn't want to, I had to get past this. I also put the glass in because the first time I tried to create glass was with the sunflower painting I did. The glass jar wasn't good. So this was something else I also revisited while I was at it. I am happy with the glass effect but I know the stem went a bit wrong. I finished it at midnight.
