Grapes in a bowl



8X10
Oil on canvas
I saw the morning light on those 3 grapes and had to try to capture this setup.
Someone once told me that still life paintings belong in funeral parlors.
I think that's true of a lot of them. They tend to have dark, somber backgrounds.
I've been trying to use lighter backgrounds with the past few that I've done.
