Small adjustments to the shadow and background colour makes these look as brilliant as the first “Strawberry Box” did. I actually prefer the more decisive brush strokes instead of the lighter more tentative approach. In “Oddly Chopped Lemons” the shadow already had alizarin inside, but more seems to give depth. Intense sun made this a difficult painting from the beginning. The middle painting I may title “Roll Out”. The penumbra was violet, but I added a transitional lavender against the background yellows. That blue see-through is much better with the same lavender. The topmost painting, “ Outlier”, now has the same lavender transition in the penumbra of each shadow. The background needs ombré lighting in the light to darker blue range, all lighter than the tabletop. These changes were made with Procreate on my iPad!! It’s possible to make the changes in paint with much greater confidence and less mess, waste and time. I do love this device and how it improves my tasks.
