Plums

Relax Friday night to everybody! Let me a bit interrupt my flower series, this time I would like to share some fruit etudes. 
First one is a little plum painting (oil on canvas, cardboard 15x15cm). I composed this simple still life using three plums, each one is different size and color. I tried to depict its dusty-white coating and smoothness.  I fond of its amazing cold violet and light blue tones. Using  short broken strokes I took attempt to depict scrapes and roughness of fruit.



I also painted reflexes in the shadows of plums on the table, to get more volume to the fruits. The main accent of the shadow must be on the border, and as possible light and transparent in the center.
For background I used usual white surface, that highlight fruits very good.

Gladiolus



Today I would like to continue my flower theme. 
This time my new work – etude of light purple gladiolus.
I really fall in love with these flowers. Especially I like its tender soft creamy color. Saturated purple core underlines lights of petals. I used carmine light and blue ultramarine with whites for midtones and a bite lemon yellow for stamens. Also I took attention to reflexes, to give more volume to flowers and some sense of air on canvas. To balance a color palette I used emerald green and light blue tones for background.

Red Peony

 Hello my dear friends!
 Let me show my new work «Red Peony»,  oil on canvas/cardboard (size without frame 30x30 cm).
 Peony is one of my favorite flowers, I like it's saturated and tender colors, juicy petals and intricate form.  I inspired by   pictures of Chinese and Japanese masters of art, ink drawings and  engravings.
I used carmine red in shadows and cadmium red in middle tones and lights. Also here and there I used a white canvas ground instead whites, that gives some freshness and vivid to painting.

Painting is beautifully framed and ready to shipping.

White freesias. Oil on canvas

Good day to everybody!

So, we haven’t seen long time, and now I glad to return. Summer holidays are finished, but I didn’t  waste time and accumulated a lot of works to share to you.

Today in Stuttgart we have quite gloomy weather and I would like to share something sunny and lightly. That’s why I chose this etude with white freesias (oil on canvas).

Flowers are brightly lit by Sun and its curved petals gives intricate shadows. I used cold blue-violet colors in the shadows and warm lemon-yellow whites. I applied saturated greens for stems, emerald green in shadows and lemon yellow in the lights. For background I chose open blue tone of ultramarine light.
