Orange Slices is still pursuing a study of color harmony and a nice break from green. It makes me think of "Go Broncos" since I used to live in Colorado.  I put the orange slices on a glass plate with silver decoration.

Ode to Green was more of the color harmony series.  It is so much fun just pushing the paint around.

Orange wedges is another study in color harmony and reflections.  My intent was to keep it loose, but it just gets tighter as I attempt to correct just one more thing.

Green Apples and Bottles is another study in color harmony.  I decided to keep it more painterly, which I like.

Green Apples is a study in color harmony.  I started with a warm light and discovered that the colors were competing, but the cool light  brought everything into close harmony.  I also liked the way the light traveled through the lavender bottle creating a warm glow in the shadows. The one thing I'd change is to move the bottle to the left.  The bottle and peach background are the same width.  I keep discovering these things too late, so will work on composition.  Other than that I liked this study.
