This is the 4th painting I started to paint in this series of painting, but it was the 5th one finished. I haven't done many of this kind of still life, partly cause I think others does it better and partly because I have thought it wasn't my thing. Well, I have rethought it, and I think as long as I do it my way, it can be worth to explore.
After drawing this one up, I felt very bored, but when I got into it and saw the direction it took, I had a lot of fun.
I like the way you apply your paint--layering it on in strokes. I also like the strength of your drawing. Your style is very bold Roger.
SvaraRaderaThis one is great , too...love your way of doing fruit bowls ! And I really like the background !
SvaraRaderaFirst, thanks for the email Roger! :) Second . . . I really like this series. Of course that's probably no surprise given my penchant for still life. Ha! But I really like the way you approached your subject. Great composition and style.
SvaraRaderaThe minute I saw this I thought it was amazing. I love the energy it has. :) And I think it could definitely be your thing the way you paint it with your signature style. :) And I feel the same way when I've done a bunch of drawings, bored as all get out to start painting them. Blah! But it usually goes away once I start the actual painting like you.
SvaraRaderaVery nice still life. I like that you have a very recognizable style. Doug
