Contained

This version is actually the second one; I may do more until I get it like I really want it but this is a step on the way.

Three Plums in a White Bowl

Here are the red and black plums again.  The painting surface was covered first with the left over paint from the previous painting session giving the surface texture.  I then drew the layout on this surface and let some of the under painting show. 

Solitary

This acrylic is actually from a pastel that I did several years ago.   I've always liked the composition and decided to redo it acrylics.  The pastel was a lot more realistic but that's not my goal this time.  Instead I am trying to go much more loose and abstracted.  Thanks for looking.

Red Rimmed Bowl

  

I was trying to tweak a painting that I started Monday morning that evening.  I was frustrated and in a moment of pique, covered the painting in black paint.  Then I just started painting into the black paint an imaginary set-up and this is the result.  I like the expressive, painterly quality and the distortion of the objects. And it was great fun painting it.  Now, if I can continue with that freedom.
