Apples and Black Vase

Black Vase with Apples

12" square on wood cradled panel

Oil

My favourite of the latest square format series from October.  I really liked this black vase and will use it again soon.  

These pink and yellow dahlias with the last bit of summer phlox from my garden were the perfect simple little flowers to paint.

The colour of the dahlias and the apples look just great together.  I enjoyed painting the teal vase as well because of the carved pattern.  The first of a series that I'm working on this Fall.
