Cherries and Silver
 
Cherries and Silver
Oil  5x7
 
Depicting silver is a challenge as it reflects any and everything around it, and conveying the shine is another interesting facet of painting silver objects.  I really liked the bright and varied shades of red in the cherries. I have quite a few silver pieces to practice on, so you may be seeing more silver paintings.  I enjoyed this one so much, I plan on painting it again in the future. 
 
Thanks for your visit.  Stop by again.
