Gala Apple Bowl






I keep saying I just want to learn to paint apples!  What I really mean is I think they are a fairly simple shape, so it's good practice.

I painted these apples to enter in the September challenge at Artists Helping Artists website. There are lots of interesting and varied entries for this month.   Check them out.

    I like the composition, Virginia! But what I like most is the very saturated reds on the apples, which is wonderfully eye catching.

    Very nice composition. The apples have good color and shape, and just right with the highlights.
