6 x 6 inch Oil on canvas
Before I actually compose the still life I like to visualize it, in this case it was mostly color combinations, I like to have an idea what its gonna look like prior to the actual object arrangement, the only thing that wouldn't agree to that was the actual peach, it would just not sit still, you'd think it should just stay flat on the table but no..., its like a sitter that likes to move a lot, I fixated it between the foldings and it seemed to work!
6 x 8 inch Oil on linen on Panel I really like these Robert Simmons Signet brushes that I just started using, they're great for applying heavier strokes of paint and they're also very flexible, for the middle values and transitions I usually use a mongoose brush, so I balance between the two, mostly flats though... sold .

This still life composition was all about color and I was trying to capture all the color variables that drew my attention in the first place, from the warmer tones to the cooler violets, I really like how all these colors relate to each other and connect the whole piece together.
