Wandering Vine

Wandering Vine
4x4 inches
acrylic on gessobord panel

This is one of those paintings that I am finding hard to declare "done". I feel like I can just keep glazing more and more color on those grapes. I think it is time to step away.....

I love the way that fickle little vine just kind wanders around these solid grapes kind of aimlessly. I wanted to try to capture a bit of the translucent nature of the grapes too. Grapes are a tough subject. But I keep coming back to them because there is so much to work on.

Lots of deadlines and events coming up....I'd better get painting! But tonight is the opening for the Winter Warmup show at MiXtMedia - can't wait to see my work hanging in the gallery!
Wandering Vine - $55 + $4.95 shipping in the US
