Apples on Wooden Box - Mark H Brown
I finished another piece with apples this evening. I decided to use an old wooden container to hold the apples and continue the theme using a wooden box crate to rest the setup upon. I love painting wood, particularly with all the cuts, dents and nails. There is a world of subtle colors in the wood. Using the lighter background gives more color due to the bounce lights.

Magnificent. I love how the apples seem to glow between the wood slats.
Perfect food, perfect painting.
I like the contrast of the rustic wood and basket to the gloss of the apples.
Lovely, just lovely. How much time did this take to paint?
