Using the Sienna/yellow mix, apply a wash over the whole onion.
This time, while the wash is still wet, use a clean damp brush to lift some paint for the highlights. This will give a soft edge.
While still damp, apply some Light red.
( thicker mix ,very little water ).
Also apply some Burnt Umber to the damp surface. Use very little water with your Burnt Umber so your paint will be thicker.

At this time you can paint the top stem of the onion, markings and dark edge.

Allow to dry and then re-wet the whole onion and apply some light red (thicker mix) to the right side.
