'Wrap One'

'Wrap One' is the eleventh painting in my series of

Fifty-Nine Apples. This painting is a shout back to when fruit was wrapped in tissue paper for boxed transport.

Turned in early last night and did not finish 'Wrap One'. I will post it when it is finished tonight.
Number eleven in the series of Fifty-Nine Apples.

'Gala with UPC'

'Gala with UPC' is the tenth oil painting in the Fifty-Nine Apples series. I left the Universal Price Code on this apple. I have a simple time lapse of 'Gala With UPC', and the time lapse videos of he Fifty-Nine Apple Series so far. 

The daily paintings are painted on stretched canvas. When they are ready for varnish I mount them on quarter inch birch plywood. The painted canvas covers all the sides and on the back I attach a flush hanger so that the painting is ready to hang with or with out a frame. Also on the back I name the painting and sign.

'Gala'

'Gala' is the ninth painting in the 59 Apples series. I am so pleased with the progression of this series. My appreciation of the subtle warm color variations has increased with with each apple. I do however feel a little guilty about the amount of time I spend at the apple display in the grocery store and and then check out with one apple.

This is the eighth  painting in my series of fifty-nine apples. The painting of this simple fruit is moving me to explore color theory and literally the way I lay oil paint on canvas.
Photographing the resulting oil painting is continuing to frustrate me. Glad the painting is a joy.

'Jonagold'

'Jonagold' is the seventh in the '59 Apples' series.

'Pink Lady'

'Pink Lady' is the sixth in the '59 Apples' series. Choosing a pale background has moved a lot of light around the apple and decreased the degree of shadow/light difference.
I tried to make a time lapse video of the painting, but the video is very poor. View video here:
