My lovely lemon

oil on linen, 6 x 8in
I find it super nice these days doing these little still life studies. Especially with a simple subject like this which I dont necessarily find particularly interesting, but that really takes the pressure of making a good painting. And its a very good exercise in color, value and edges.

Comment by Þorgrímur Andri Einarsson on January 9, 2013 at 12:37: Thank you for your comment Michael. Especially since it gave me the chance to see your work for the first time. I really really like it. Lower Yosemite Falls grabbed my attention straight away. Good drawing, good atmosphere. Very good work.
