Summer Light still life after Henri le Sidaner
Palette knife painting by Marion Hedger
Oil on canvas panel
24x30 cm (10" x 12")
Day 17 in the 30 day challenge
Another
one based on a Henri le Sidaner painting. This one had a lot of details
with all those items on the table which were hard to capture with a
palette knife. I should have reduced the number of items and just
concentrated on the light. I changed the grapes from the original, to
the bowl in the front. Initially I was just going to paint the cloth
without anything there, but it needed something green to balance the
greens in the grass.
