Bananas with a White Bowl

 

9 X 12 inch Still Life on Acrylic panel, Price $175. (click to buy) 

After painting the Bananas in a Bowl I thought it might be better to use a longer format for the same subject.  I am thinking it added a little more power to the composition.

When I started this still life I had three bananas so I figured I better paint this one quickly as this is my breakfast for the next two days.  Nothing like a little motivation to get things done.

My wife cut up an apple to eat and left it on the kitchen counter.  When I saw that the pile of apples on the plate was quite interesting I hijacked it for a painting.  I actually took a photo of the plate and used that with another apple and a jar of peanut butter in my shadow box to complete the painting.  No she did not go hungry!
