This one was painted from a picture I took a while back. It’s my first time to paint these round eggplants but I am very pleased with how it turned out. Although I much prefer the taste of the longer, violet eggplants, I must say that these round ones are just as much fun to paint.

SOLD
Potatoes are so much fun to paint! I am very pleased with how this turned out, but there is a lot of glare showing in the scan, especially in the peeler’s handle area. In reality, it is quite smooth and even. I’ll try to get a better scan of this later if I can and change the image.
Edit: Image replaced with improved version.

This is a cute cabbage measuring only about 10 centimeters or 4 inches long. The one in my painting, I mean, not my real subject.
I was having problems with the background at first. Initially, it looked like the wood block was floating, so I scraped off the top part of the background to try and correct it. I thought it looked more interesting that way so I just left the top part “unfinished”. Hope you like it!

I zoomed in really close to the asparagus. I thought I’d experiment a bit with focus so I made some of the edges blurry.

Another painting of one of my most favorite vegetables. It’s funny, but the two eggplant dishes that I love to eat most have eggs as one of the ingredients. I think they go very well in a dish together. I’m not sure if those two dishes are what they had in mind when they called this vegetable “eggplant”, but I think the name is perfect for it!
The very first eggplant painting I did was posted about two weeks ago. It was great fun to paint, so I decided to do another one. I liked this eggplant’s curved shape and chose a light background to feature it.
Daily Painting #82 – Bell Pepper Halves

Oil painting on gessoed matboard

Here’s the other bell pepper in daily painting #74. It has turned more orange since. My favorite part to paint were the little seeds.
Daily Painting #70 – Eggplant
(Click image for larger version)
Oil painting on gessoed matboard
Approximately 5.5 x 7.5 inches — 14 x 19 cm
My first time to paint an eggplant. I think this is one of my most favorite color combinations so far — violet and yellowish brown.

Here’s something a little bigger than usual. It is currently one of my favorites. The cucumbers were great fun to paint!
Daily Painting #23 – Seasonings
(Click image for larger version)
Oil on gessoed matboard
Approximately 5 x 7 inches — 13 x 18 cm
Here’s a more complex arrangement. I really enjoy painting garlic and the design on the pot was also fun to do. I don’t think I’ve ever used pure ultramarine before.
Daily Painting #19 – Red Onion: Half

One more painting of a red onion.

(Click image for larger version)
Oil on gessoed matboard
Approximately 5 x 7 inches — 13 x 18 cm
Another red onion painting. I love painting wood blocks. In the future, I hope to incorporate more “character” to these wood blocks by adding cracks, chips, dark spots, etc.
Daily Painting #15 – Red Onion
(Click image for larger version)
Oil on gessoed matboard
Approximately 5 x 7 inches — 13 x 18 cm
Another painting where I used the earthy palette — mostly alizarin crimson, yellow ochre, burnt sienna and a little ultramarine.
Daily Painting #12 – Baby Squash
(Click image for larger version)
Oil on gessoed matboard
Approximately 5 x 7 inches — 13 x 18 cm
My Mom bought this baby squash especially for me to paint. I wanted to try something different for the background. Anyway, my experiments didn’t turn out well and I had to scrape it off once or twice until I finally settled on a simple, solid background.
Daily Painting #5 – Onions in a Bowl

Oil on gessoed matboard
