Today I started from more of a place of no-thing. I thought about colors and value first, imagined a light source, dialed my object back to an apple-ish shape. Left apple colors behind to help me leave my left hemisphere behind.
Used a new brush, a Princeton 12 Bright.
Totally fun. Remembered to stop!

I love the gradations of color in the brushstrokes in this one, esp in the yellow-toned background.
Those gradations of color and the brushstrokes pull me right in every single time my eyes fall on this painting. Light and shadow, light and shadow—so compelling.
