The most difficult thing for me in Posting Daily Paintings is that it takes awhile for me to see a paintings and know if it is finished.  I'm still not sure about this one.  Time will tell.

Tangerines with green cup by F. Poole

Tangerines with Green Cup  5"x7" Oil on Canvas
I worked on this for a few days last week.  I will probably continue to work on if for some finishing touches.  The difficult part of Posting Daily Paintings, is that sometimes it takes me awhile to  really see a painting, and know if it is finished.   Only time will tell.

Japanese Persimmon's with Leaves by F. Poole

Japanese Persimmon's with Leaves   12x14  Oil on Canvas
This is a painting I did a few months ago.   I have several smaller paintings I want to post, but they still aren't finished because I've been bogged down with computer and website problems which has given me little time to paint this week.  I hope you enjoy this one.

Strawberries by F. Poole

Strawberries  4"x6" Oil on Canvas
These are some berries from my yard I photographed last summer.  This is one of the paintings I painted using one of the photos.  I usually paint from life, but have a harder time finding material in the winter months.  That is when the photos come in handy.

Green Grapes by F. Poole

Green Grapes 5"x7" Oil on Canvas
A few months ago a lot of wonderful fruit came my way.  Too much for me to use in paintings all at once.  Not wanting to forgo painting this abundance, I took photos for use later when I had more time.  I just found those photos this week and this is one of the paintings using one of them.  I also took photos as I was working on the painting so have a progression of the work. At some point, I will decide how I can share these with viewers.

French Pears on Branch by F. Poole

French Pears on Branch  8"x10" Oil on Canvas
I always feel blessed when someone brings me gifts like the one above.   I painted this a couple of months ago, and took a picture of it because the leaves, which I love to include in a painting, wilt or curl, so photos are necessary at times like that, since I don't ever complete a painting in one sitting.  And some paintings take a lot longer than others.  Except for times like this, I always work from a set up in my studio with one source of light.  In a case like this, I will still use the live set up, but use the photo for reference when painting the leaves.
