Mango – 6" x 8" Oil on Canvas Panel
SOLDThis mango has been in the refrigerator for awhile not getting eaten because it was intended for a painting. Only when I put a light gray backdrop up did the image click. Previously brighter backdrops had been used, but they always took away some of the vibrancy of the fruit itself.
This painting taught me that sometimes in order for the focus to really sing it needs a subtle and muted background to emphasize the color and variety of the fruit itself.

Elizabeth, This is bold, in its placement on the canvas, and realistic, yet still abstract- beautiful!
