"Bejeweled"

"Bejeweled" 

was a small daily painting where I wanted to explore the light reflecting through the citrus fruit.

 I chose I piece of every fruit I had on hand. Grapefruit, orange, lemon and then a lime. 

The lemon piece (main right foreground) has come out a little more green 

but that was the colour I was seeing at the time.

 I painted in light glazes to get the mixture of colours to blend. 

It was something new to try and I think I'll continue to explore it.
