Acrylic on deep edge cotton canvas
130cm x 80cm
This is now finished and will be delivered tomorrow morning to Belle House Restaurant. I have really enjoyed this painting. I love the fact that, just by applying some white paint, it is possible to create the shine on the skin of the plums.
I am very pleased that the restaurant agreed to these plums being painted as they have the most amazing coloured flesh when I cut them open.
I have tried to make the plums 'glow' (similar to 'Proud Pear') by contrasting it against the dark wood and dark background. I am particularly pleased with the effect of the orange under the Payne's Grey which has given the background a glow as well.
I will take some photographs when they are on the wall in the restaurant.
