Three Figs II


5 x 6 in., oil on linen on panel
Sold

This is the sister painting to yesterday's Three Figs I, which I used a lamp in my studio to illuminate. This is the same exact set up using natural light from my studio window instead.

Three Figs I


4 x 6 in., oil on linen on panel
Sold

I really love fig season. I made Three Figs I using a lamp in my studio for the lighting. I painted a sister painting, called Three Figs II, of the same exact set up using natural light from my studio window. Three Figs II will be posted tomorrow. I'd be interested in hearing feedback on the different light sources.
