Mangos Diptych

Mangos: Ripe and Almost Ripe {diptych} – both together 4.5” x 11” (11.4 x 27.9 cm) –
Oil on Linen Panel

Hello~

I am happy to say that today rained and thus the construction was unable to move forward today, so I had a somewhat sane day. The weather predicts it will rain tomorrow as well, so I am hopeful that the construction will not be able to go on tomorrow as well. So I can spend some stress free time in the studio.

Here is a painting I completed a little over a week ago. It is of one of my favorite subjects, mangos. I bought a box of them and I liked how there was varying ripeness found with the fruit. I have since diced them up and pureed them for future snacks and recipes.

I have had a busy day and ready to call it quits. Until next time, thanks for sharing time with me : )

Gorgeous colors in the mangoes, Liz. Beautifully done.

Glad you got bonus time to work in your studio. The rain has been amazing, hasn't it?

Hi Elizabeth,

I like how the reflection of red ties the two together.
I absolutely LOVE a day when it rains all day and I can stay in my cozy house. Food for the soul.

Thanks Mary!

We had rain today as well, and I agree with you rainy days are all about getting cozy at home :)
