        Here are the still lifes I have done recently. They are all done on black paper with mungyos and neopastels.

        Apricots and Cherries 7×7 inches


        Apricots 5×10 inches


        Hydrangeas and Limes 11×16 inches

            Hi Maria! :wave: Great to see your recent work.

            Both of these are wonderfully done. I really like the texture you have in both of these paintings. The cherries have such a wonderfully realistic ring of reflected light on them – and that’s a lot of cherries. Great job!

            Your hydrangeas and limes painting is so beautiful – all the soothing blue and lavender shades, with the pretty bright greens from the limes. The shaping and composition is just great.

            Love them both!

                            It’s so funny, Maria – somehow when I first looked at these, the second painting of the apricots didn’t load and I didn’t notice. oops :angel: My comments were only for the first and last paintings.

                            All three are loading now for me. I must take a moment to say the shadows on the apricot painting are really beautiful – I like that you put in some reflective color in the shadows. Looks great.

                                Superb reflections in the second painting, beautiful.
