Pepper Eggplant & Tomatoes

Whether you call it eggplant or aubergine, it’s tasty when you roast it in the oven!

Of course it’s also good with tomatoes.

Eggplant is a popular still life vegetable. It has a beautiful deep purple skin and it’s very glossy. Most of the color shows up in the highlight reflections. The rest of it is so dark it almost looks black.

The original painting is for sale on Daily Paintworks.

I started this painting with a coat of transparent red. I mixed it from Quinacridone Magenta and Hansa Yellow Medium. The transparency allows the drawing to show through. I added some Pyrrole Red in some areas because I wanted the brightest red possible.

This is another painting of Lake Ontario. The shape of the hills makes this painting immediately recognizable as Krull Park. I painted the water a brilliant blue so it looks like the ocean. I also used ultramarine blue for the sky which makes the water stand out even more. This is a nice place to spend a summer afternoon taking it easy and eating fresh peaches from a local farm. The original painting is available.
