This is the first time since I started this in May that I didn’t finish the painting in one sitting – and I think it would have been better if I had. I’m just not painting often enough to be able to just dive in right away. The red tomato is pretty shapeless. And I had to go back and adjust the shadows in the bowl at the end as they were not dark enough. It’s all part of the process though. For my second painting I did complete it in one sitting and it went more smoothly, but I really looked a lot better immediately after I finished it then it did the following morning. We’ll see how the next one goes.
