Strawberry on Glass Dish

Strawberry on Glass Dish. oil/canvas panel, 8x10.

Glass is one of my favorite things to paint because it's so reflective, which is great for playing around with juicy, interesting paint. The reflections, colors, and tones are both a challenge and a joy to interpret. After working on this small (8x10) and short painting, I have an idea for a series of paintings. My goal this summer is to have a small body of work that looks cohesive. Perhaps different fruits or solitary food items on glass dishes? I'm not sure what will come of it but I'm going to do a few more paintings like this and see where it takes me...
