Oil with palette knife $35
Seeing these berry baskets recently in our neighborhood market brought back some wonderful summer memories, and I hope this painting does the same for you. It also gave me a chance to pull out one of my favorite colors, phthalo green. This is the blue-green color that makes up most of the berry basket. You see it often in blue Mason jars and ocean waters - more summer favorites. The photo does not quite do the painted colors justice, but then neither can the plump pile of strawberries in a painting quite measure up to the real juicy fruit. I hope to soon paint a series of berry baskets and fresh market goodness.
