"Satsuma Orange #2"
This is my second attempt at a 30 minute painting of the Satsuma orange, and I think it took a bit longer than that. There were actually two different oranges that I painted as one. One of them had a nice leaf, and the other had a great shape with some interesting structure on the top. So I put them next to each other, turned the light such that the shadows were parallel, and tried to meld then into one. I like the way this one came out.
Then I ate them! Very tasty indeed. Which one do you like best? Compare this one with the previous post.

I like this second orange better. It has more depth and complexity. Really lovely.
