Apples Final
Here is the final painting, I stopped before I messed it up.... now onto something else. I think i learned a lot on this one about laying in more subtle values.
I see you picking up quite a bit just buy doing this one twice. Just like you added subtle reds to the Green apple, you could do the same to the red... as good as it looks, complements always help. Love how your losing edges too. Buy the time your done with your portfolio you won't need the classes.
Ah, such beautiful fruit--now I want to eat apples! I love the way the red one really pops even though it's more in the background. Man, you and Echo are making me jealous that I haven't painted in so long. Eh, summer's just around the corner......

THAT'S QUITE LOVELY, MIKE. GREAT COLORS. VERY PHOTOREALISTIC. (SORRY ABOUT THE ALL-CAPS).
So damn good!
