Four Oranges

6 x 6"
oil on canvas on panel

I painted these oranges very slowly and carefully, with a small brush. By contrast, I painted the brass vase loosely, with a larger brush. I loved putting the splashes of orange in the reflective surface of the vase.

I love the way you've painted the gold vase in both paintings! So gorgeous! Really nice compositions, and colors too.
