Apricots with Plum - Original Oil Painting by George De Chiara

Apricots with Plum 5x7 inches Oil on Canvas Panel by George De Chiara When I noticed that my wife had purchased some apricots at the store, I thought to myself  "I've never painted those before" and so I set up this still life. Originally I had included some black grapes, but as I was painting, I thought the whole thing looked a little busy, so I took them out. Although I had a lot of fun with the reflections I had to really spend some time working them out. I only wish I could have included more of the bowl so I could have had even more reflection, but I didn't want the fruit to get too small.
