Carrot, Carrot

Carrot, Carrot, oil on canvas, 9x12

I painted Carrot, Carrot instead of going to the farmer's market on a recent Saturday morning, but it ended up being a good trade off.  Instead of painting in my normal location I moved the operation outside to my covered deck where the light was pretty intense and there was a strong glare. Thus, the shadows ended up being almost a "high noon " angle. The fruit and vegetables ended up looking like long, lost distance cousins in the middle of a deep conversation. The plight of the refrigerator vegetable drawer!  : )
