Painting #6: February Pear, Oil, 6"x6"

Okay!  First post done in oils.  Pretty quick study.  I blocked in the colors, then refined.  Here it is:


What I like:
- love the color combo of orange, green & blue
- I like how easy the composition was
- the variation of the background orange
- I didn't labor over this one (& perhaps it shows, LOL!)

What I don't like:
- the detail on the tablecloth is too rough, perhaps
- the pear is pretty rough
- it looks like the tablecloth is vertical

But overall it was fun.  I wasn't able to use any medium, so made do with just the paint.  Hmm.  I need to figure out this medium stuff, because I like my paints to flow.
