Miniature #1
Oil on canvas board
9"x12" oil
May 27, 2008
I have been watching other daily painters for a while now, and believe that it is high time to join them. What better idea to study the world around us than by making quick sketches of daily objects? Although I must add that my 9"x12" painting is getting on the large end for miniatures.
Since fruits and vegetables are a perennial favorite, here are my contribution fresh from the garden. I love the sheen these tomatoes took under a bright spotlight. They almost look as though they are made of glass.

You are on your way to more enjoyment painting than you have ever thought possible. My advice is to stay positive, try to see the amazing within the ordinary objects and keep painting on a regular basis. Your first two posts are nice pieces and I'm sure you are going to do well. Thank you for the nice comment on my blog page today. You made my day.

Aah, I'm going to go through and comment on each painting now...
It's great to see you painting again Ming Quing!
This is really nice - the colours are really rich and lively. The high lights on the tomatoes make them look really, well, tasty. I like the way the red is so bright it reflects onto the surface below too.
