Apples and figs

The red and green exercise continues. Here is the homework for this week, continuation of exploring the complimentary colours. I had less time to devote to the painting part this week but have been constantly thinking about colours and compositions. I intended to create a study that show a gradual style of rendering from detail and contrast to soft washes of layered colour. I had intended to take the most detailed part and paint it in a built up thicker paint manner. The fig in the bottom got the most detailing.
