Today I chose a pear... I know, it's a very popular subject these days, but there is a good reason for that. You can give a pear so much personality, you can tweek it and give it bumps and spots and different color variations. Again, I am discovering the potental of complimentary colors. I used red, green, yellow, some white and some black in this painting. Most of the shadows are degrees of red and green mixed together. Red and green are opposite each other on the color wheel, therefore they are "complimentary" Just as blue and orange, and yellow and purple. When these colors get mixed they create a muddy neutral color, sort of cancelling each other out.
Anyway, this is a 6x6 mini canvas, acrylic painting. Cute for a little nook in the kitchen. For sale at www.kre8or.etsy.com
