Tropical Paradise

I have completed a new still life. Some of the props were given to me for my birthday, they were fruits. That prompted me to put on a still life. The frame for the painting has already been purchased, I ordered a stretcher and this stimulated the horizontal format of the compositional solution. Shells from the depths of the sea have been in the collection for a long time, sometimes I use them in my productions. A particularly favorite shell is Heliotis, although the beauty of the shell of the predatory marine gastropod mollusk of the helmeted family Cassis cornuta is indisputable. Just like other shells. While I was painting the still life, the name came up, since most of the objects symbolize pleasure. Pineapple and Mango turned out to be also very tasty, Pitahaya and other fruits dried up a lot during the writing. I tried some fruits for the first time how to paint from nature so it tastes. I filmed several stages of work on the still life, starting with the transfer of the drawing and the underpainting, in gradual words.
